Toddler with Milk and Egg Allergy

We just found out that my 2 year old son has a milk and egg allergy. He was diagnosed with EE (Eosinophilic Esophagitis)and GERD. The EE is caused usually from a food allergy- the white blood cells in the esophagas over produce from the food allergy and cause inflamtion in the esophagas. I have never heard of this disease. I am looking for ideas from mom's that have children with same food allergy for suggestions on good snacks, drinks and foods. And where and what do you get when you go out to eat! Thanks

Help! My Son Is Allergic to Eggs and Dairy!!

I just found out my 10 month old is allergic to eggs and dairy. He can't even be touched by someone that has had contact with either of theses things. He is eating table food just fine, however, I have to completely change his diet now and I'm at a loss!! I'm hoping there are other moms out there with this same condition that can help me with meal ideas and what brands are okay. Even if the food doesn't contain egg or dairy, it can't even be made in line that does egg and dairy. He also can't have peanuts!! Please help!!

Recipe for Peanut Butter Cookies Without Peanut Butter

I was wondering if anyone had a good recipe for peanut butter cookies without peanut butter? My Mom recently became allergic to peanut butter and I want to make her some cookies for Mother's Day because she craves peanut butter so much. Has anyone made peanut butter cookies that actually taste good with a peanut butter substitute?

Where Can I Buy Rice Milk for My 1 Year Old Daughter?

Hi Mommas! My 14 month old DD seems to not tolerate cow's milk well. She gets terrible rashes on her bottom as well as runny stools. Our pediatrician suggested giving her rice milk or soy milk. I chose rice milk that is fortified. Where can I buy rice milk? I went to a few grocery stores near me with no luck. I don't know if my DD is lactose intolerant yet or if it's a milk protein allergy. If you can tell me where you buy your rice milk I would appreciate it thanks!

Getting My Toddler to Take Yucky Medicine

I need help! My two year old is supposed to take Fer-in-sol (iron supplement) because her hemoglobin is a little low. I cannot get her to take it. I tried mixing with some grape juice, as the pharmacist suggested, but I got nowhere. I tried it myself and it tastes terrible. So I'm wondering if anyone out there has some good tips for getting their child to take bad-tasting medicine, such as iron or prednisolone, etc. Thanks!
