    We actually had it done around 18 months (my DD was tested at 12 months though and we were anxious to have her tested) and we did know he had issues with dairy at that point.

    my daughter has suspected problem with dairy & soy (blood in stool). but i wonder if it could be anything else too. her skin prick was all negative at 3 months old. what were results of your skin prick & when was it done? is RAST more accurate than skin prick?

    My daughter was just over 3 months old.  The ones we assumed would be positive were positive.

    Skin prick is more accurate than RAST.  We had both done at 3 months and they both showed us the same results.
