DS2 has been on Nutramigen for 2 years for gastric reflux/food intolerances, which is now more under control. And he now eats a normal-ish diet.
I have desperate to get him off Nutramigen for a while, and took the opportunity earlier this week when he had a D&V bug to cut it out. So he went cold turkey.
The thing is, I am not now worrying that he really is getting all the nutrients from his diet. He doesnt drink any other milk, but eats food containing milk/dairy. Should I be giving him calcium/vitamin drops?
I know I should contact his dietician, but I think she might criticise me for the suddenness of me stopping his 'milk'. So I'd like to get myself prepared first.
Any info would be appriciated. Thanks.
PS one small thing at the back of my mind - DS2 still has nasty nappies - I assume this is just post virus thing from his illness earlier in the week, but you dont think it could be a reaction to stopping the Nutramigen do you???
