Two weeks ago, my husband, myself and my 6-month-old all got the norovirus. Nasty.
But my LO is still having explosive diarrhoea two weeks later! He probably has diarrhoea 5-10 times a day. I am wondering if he has developed a temporary lactose intolerance. I am taking him to the doctor tomorrow, but I wondered if anyone else has had any experienced with this?
And how long does allergy testing take?
He's breastfed 80% of the time, but gets a bottle of formula at night. I don't have the supply anymore to cut this bottle out although I will just try and build it up again if lactose intolerance turns out to be what's happening.
He's also just started weaning and I have given him dairy a few times in the last two weeks.
Any advice? Anyone else been through anything similar?
