So I don't want to put Isabelle on cow's milk at all. I'd rather do soy or almond milk. However, I'm super scared she'll have some kind of reaction, especially the almond milk bc it contains nuts (obviously). Should I bring it up to her doctor? Should I get an allergy test first? Tbh I would prefer to just do an allergy test for everything but I don't want to see her in pain or anything 😕 Idk if it's different now, but when i had mine done they poked me with a ton of needles....

What allergies are in your family? When I was breast feeding they told me to eat peanuts and peanut butter and all that th stuff to introduce it in some way.

@scurlock.mommy, my daughter only drinks almond milk and always has. Soy milk makes little girls develop faster so we decided against that.

Allergy tests aren't 100 percent till two my son is on soy milk because we just found out that the lactose free milk was the reason he couldn't have a solid bm sorry tmi but they probably won't run an allergy panel unless she shows any signs have you tried peanut butter yet

@allyk.xmommy I don't think there are any, really. My brother has some reactions to certain foods but it's more of a gastrointestinal issue. The only thing I react badly to is dairy milk (all other forms of dairy are fine).

@mommysbabies not yet! We don't really ever eat it so I don't buy it.

@heatherlynn1220 that's true! Thyroid issues also run in my family and soy messes with that, too.

I'd try even getting just a small packet of the almond butter it's 99 cents at Walmart and let her have a little bit just have Benadryl in case of hives and phone and keys ready in case of severe reaction we delayed it due to me having a peanut allergy as a child but we just did little bites over a few days
