It baffles me how insensitive Doctors can be when they are supposed to be in the "caring" profession!! I hope you get somewhere with the girls. It must be quite frustrating at times. x

 So is this something that is supposed to go away? I know a fair number of kids at the daycare drink soymilk rather than whole milk. Maybe this is common and that is why? The doctor may just be trying to put you at ease by not making a big deal, but sometimes that can be worse, can't it. Let us know how it goes with the allergist.

We have a dary and gluten free diet these are a couple of food products I can recomend, .( Safe to eat,  Mrs Crimbles, ) There are some very good milk / cheese substitutes, pluss a gluten free baking powder

Most of our larger grocery stores have a section set aside for allergie free items. It's not as daughting as you think. We bie a cheese replacement, it's unfortunatly like those cheese slices, easy for children to feed them selves. Sirah prefers Soya Soleil, with added calcium.

Drs can be so frustrating can't they?  When R was little he kept having to see the paediatrician about his weight gain (or lack of) - I kept saying something was not right and talking about his poos and the dr would basically tell me I was worrying about nothing.  Then @ 18mths I took him to my niece's dr who had diagnosed her with severe allergies and he did a prick test - no allergies (despite DH & I having allergies) but he said to me "Mothers are with their children 24hrs so if a mum thinks something is wrong, I believe her".  He advised taking him off dairy and/or wheat and the result was astonishing, but what was even better was having someone take it seriously!  Glad he gave you a referral, though, and I hope the girls can get tested and get it sorted out!

Will goats milk irriate them as well? Theres a source of them getting their calcium if it doesn't bug them like 'normal' milk. Caker goes on goats milk because her poops are still very runny & mushy.. Yuck..

I'm sorry the doctor was being like that.. I'm like you.. Concered for my kids because I know what bugs them and what doesn't and they are just the 'doctor' who can give advice and thankfully he's referred you to an allergist!! :)
I should get that done as well!

Hopefully you get the results back soon!! Good luck!
