Pedi GI update

We took A to see the pedi GI today. He had to go for poor weight gain since he fell off the growth chart at 12 months. A has been dairy intolerant since 3 months old so he does almond milk and almond yogurt, etc. We tried dairy at 12 months and it didn't go well. So the pedi GI thinks he is just small because he is missing all the calories and fat that other kids get from milk, cheese, etc. That would be great because our pedi was afraid he might have celiac since I have issues with gluten. 

So the GI wants us to do another dairy trial in the next few days. I am off until Sunday afternoon so if it goes poorly I will be around! It would be great if he tolerated it this time and started gaining weight. If he doesn't then our next step will be an allergist to see if he is truly dairy allergic or just intolerant and may grow out of it someday.

FX it's an intolerance that he can grow out of, and yay for no celiac!

I hope it goes well and he tolerates it this weekend!  How much does he weigh and how tall?

L is tiny, she is only 18 lbs and 28 inches, 3rd percntile for each.  But she eats dairy and drinks milk.  I think she just has a fast meta

FX it all goes well with the dairy trial, that he may just be intolerant and not allergic, and that he does not have celiac.
