A dairy issue

After 2 weeks of dairy yogurt with bloating and diarrhea (that caused a very bad diaper rash) Allyson has been off dairy yogurt for a week. So today we started Soy yogurt and she likes it. Its a great way to fill the calcium void. Lets hope she continues to like it.

Milk Rant

I have been reading about weaning... We have almost made it to 1 year! We have had our ups and downs. I am relived that it is almost over. I plan on cutting her off as quickly as possible.

I have tried to give her a little cow milk and she hates it. She is also not a fan of yogurt.

As someone who also hates milk I understand. Why do I hate milk, it tastes gross and I do not digest it well. It makes my stomach cramp up. I also can not do yogurt. Soy milk is too sweet and chalky. I can do ice cream, chocolate milk, and other dairy products very sparingly.

Although when it comes to cooking and baking I love milk.

I have been reading and have come to the decision that the human body was not meant for cows milk to be as big a part of our diet as it is.

So what are we going to do.
