alternatives to cows milk

lilpeapod913

Hi everyone! My 13 month old has been allergic to cows milk protein since birth and now we are trying different supplements. He will not drink goats milk. He's been on oat milk supplemented with flax oil for extra fat. I choose to do the oat milk as his mother, his ped is not aware of this. I'm not certain he's getting all the nutrition he needs from the oat milk and his diet tho and it's got me worried. I can't/don't feel comfortable with soy either..so I'm looking for suggestions. Anyone else have an allergic child and could give me some suggestions?

Thanks everyone! We switched to Hemp milk and it seems to be going well.

We got the vanilla kind. Its sweet and creamy but less sugar than cows milk i tried the plain and could tolerate it too, so i think it's a double plus! 7g of fat too which is good for his brain development! I'm very happy i found this stuff! I was afraid of the almond milk bc of the chance of another food allergy do I'm steering clear of that for a while.

How many grams of protein per serving does it have?
