Hello!

I am looking for some advice on lactose intolerant babies and solid foods .. My bub is starting on solids was doing fine first few weeks now has got back the mucusy runny poos at every nappy change like before we started on de lact formula (which made his bowel movements normal) he loves banana and veggies but wondering if the farex rice cereal is no good for him? Thanks in advance

  • It’s all about playing around with his diet by the sounds of it. Try eliminating a food you think could be causing it, see the results etc etc etc


  • There’s heaps of formula for lactose intolerances these days


  • It may be that it has traces and that’s maybe contributing to the problem but I dont actually know I’m just suggesting


  • Making sure you avoid all food with dairy products is about all you can do. Read food labels thouroughly


  • Really very interesting comments on this!


  • You should probably talk to a doctor about this to be absolutely certain what the problem is.


  • Just read the ingredients on the back of packaging, be carful of food containing milk powder


  • you must read the packaging and see what is in it. keep using the formula with whatever you make.


  • People will tell you that there is no such thing but there absolutely is.


  • I would have them reviewed by a pediatrician. I hope you were able to work things out.


  • It is a great thing that he loves his bananas and veges. I bet by now he has found many more foods he likes.


  • Hope you got the answers you need


  • Talk with a doctor or mid wife, they may help


  • I’d probably consult your doctor and see what information they can offer, or turn to google


  • Hope you were able to get the answers you needed
