milk allergy

poor eleanor might have a milk allergy

she has had small amounts of blood in her stool

off and on since last thursday

the doctor said it may mean she has an infection

but more likely a milk protein allergy

so she suggested that if i want to keep breastfeeding

i should try a milk protein free diet

so pretty much no butter, cheese, milk, yogurt, whey, etc.

which sounded fine enough

and it's worth a try

(though we're also going to test her stool

to see what else may be causing the bleeding)

but now i'm trying to make a grocery list

with recipes for dinner

and the list is very short...

any suggestions?

luckily she is still gaining weight just fine
she was at 10lb 12oz today
