I said Elijah was a pill the other day, but truth is he had been a pill everyday for several weeks. We were pulling our hair out trying to figure out why our good-natured kid had turned into the angriest baby in the world. We finally decided to change his diet. He was already on reduced lactose formula, so we moved him to a lactose-free formula. That seems to have done the trick.
I am glad we found a solution and that he is feeling better, but a little upset that his lactose intolerance has not worked itself out. His doctor had hoped he would be able to drink regular formula by six months. He still has plenty of time to outgrow the sensitivity and I certainly hope he does. I think having to be dairy free would stink, quite frankly.
