Dairy Free Moms

What websites and/or resources have you used to help you learn and adjust to this new diet? I have been dairy free for a little over a month (doctor found blood in her stool). I thought I was doing well but the past couple of days my LO has been miserable again. I am not sure if there was dairy hiding in something I ate or or if it is something completely different, but any help you have is much appreciated!! Thanks!

    I'm vegan, so I can help a bit.  I read labels for EVERYTHING.  Are you trying cheese substitutes? Several of them still contain milk products (would be labeled as casein, most commonly.)

    I refer to www.vegweb.com when I have questions.

    Did you switch to soy? Because it could be that your LO is sensitive to soy as well.

    Good luck & let me know if you have further questions. I'll try to help you out as much as I can.

    I am not using any subs, I just cut it out completely. I am thinking I may need to cut soy as well.  I will check out that website, Thank you so much for your response I really appreciate it :)

    We're dairy free and basically eat a lot of fruits, vegis and meat.  Here's a website that I find helpful with figuring out what ingredients are actually milk product.  You can find soy margarine to use for cooking, we drink soy, rice, coconut, and hemp milk.

    Try hemp milk as an alternative to soy milk, it's very nutritious!  My DS is allergic to milk, eggs and peanuts, so we have to be careful with labels as well.  GL and I hope your little one feel better soon.

    Just a quick note: there is the most amazing dairy-free yogurt that is made out of coconut milk...It's made by a company called Turtle Moon and it says "So Delicious" on the container.  Whole Foods has it and it's a-MA-zing!  They also make coconut milk ice cream.
