I know there are a few moms here with babies who don’t tolerate solids well- I could use some advice from you guys.
We’ve been trying solids with Niko for a little over 2 months now and she seems to react to almost everything we’ve tried. (pears, olive oil, prunes, green beans (the favorite- go figure) and apple.) The only thing she seems to be doing well with is avocado, white potato and banana, and even those 3 I’m now questioning.
So my question is this- what kinds of reactions did your little ones have that made you think they were not tolerating foods. For Niko, hers aren’t the rash and vomiting and diarrhea that the books describe- with her the symptoms show up after about 2 days, and they’re poor sleep, crankyness, runny nose and her eczema starts flaring up. does this sound familliar?
So now I’m starting to doubt the 3 foods she is eating too, since her eczema is flaring up (we thougth it was the green beans, but we stopped those 5 days ago and it is no better). I would eliminate all 3, but she takes in so little formula (neocate about 20oz per day + about 2 that I get into her food) that without the solids, she’ll start losing weight for sure.
Do her symptoms sound like what you have experienced? Or what else could be going on here?
