Infant milk allergy or feeding problem management tool

Feeding difficulties and allergic reactions due to cow’s milk protein allergy are a common problem in infants and young children. This tool is designed to help you manage infants with these problem. It will also help you to rule out other problems that are not due to cow’s milk allergy.

If symptoms are largely wind, colic and watery stools when drinking cow’s milk or cow’s milk formula consider LACTOSE INTOLERANCE. Lactose free milk formula can be purchased directly from Chemists or Supermarkets.

If symptoms are confined to positing or vomiting of milk when you lie the child down, consider and treat first as GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX. Try smaller more frequent feeds, not lying the infant down straight after the feeds and standard reflux medication.
