Well, things were looking better (diaper rash almost completely gone) and then it started getting worse again. My thought, the dairy was definitely part of what is bugging her but not all so being off it is good but she now had time to adjust and tell me that something else is still hurting. She has this constant butt burn with diarrhea and her spit up can still be monumental, though sometimes it is definitely improved.
So we went to see the dr. again today, Lucy had gained almost 2 inches (24.25) but had only gained 3 ounces. Now in 14 days the minimum weight gain they would want is 7 ounces so 3 is definitely low. We have an appointment with an allergist and nutritionist late next week to talk about stuff but the recommendation was a pretty insane diet. No diary, soy, wheat, eggs, rice, nuts or peas. So I get to eat fresh whole meats (most processed meat or lunch meat has bad proteins in it) and fruits and veggies. So much for the dairy free brownies I finally broke down and made yesterday because I really wanted a dessert other than coconut milk ice cream, the ice cream is good but man a cookie sounds devine right about now. I think we will start in stages and continue with diary free and add soy free and egg free for the next few days and then we will add the wheat and rice and finally the nuts and peas. Not so much fun, but Lucy is a trooper so I can be too.
