what does dairy free mean?

do you not have lactose, but lactose free dairy products are okay?

or is it all dairy (cow protien) that you eliminate?

i've been doing lactaid, but DD is still very gassy, fussy, wondering if i need to go to rice products.

babies tend to be sensitive to the protein in milk, not lactose. So, unfortunately lactose free dairy products won't do it - you really have to eliminate dairy if your baby is sensitive.

I was dairy free with both my kids for 6 months and it really means DAIRY FREE. Anything that says milk, lactose, and "ose" , whey, casein and basically any product that says milk as the allergin was off limits.

It was hard but there are lots of good alternatives with dairy free products.

It is doable but takes a lot of commitment and label reading. Here is a list of dairy protein ingredients.
