Neocate

My ped sent my 2 month old to an allergist as her blood in her stool still has not cleared after one month on Alimentum. I tried giving her the Neocate and she screamed and would not drink it. 

 Any suggestions for how to get her to drink it. I read to mix it with the Alimentum. How man days does it take for her to take it fully? 

Also, my allergist said that once the blood is clear, I can try to incorporate 1 oz of breast milk into 3 oz Alimentum and work my way up. Has anyone had success with this? I am currently dairy and soy free and will try to limit egg as well.

 

Re: Neocate

  • Just keep offering it to her. Mix it with alimentum and slowly increase. It's hard but you don't really have any other option. GL!

  • i have successfully weaned her onto 100% Neocate. It only took a few days. She now drinks it happily. 

     I'm hoping that I can start to mix in some breast milk soon.
