Ashton's face broke out in red patches about an hour plus after we gave him his first bottle of FM. We panicked like hell due to the likelihood that it is an allergy to cow's milk. Many thoughts ran through my mind. Like my milk supply has been reduced to get ready for the trip. Do I need to pump vigourously to bring back supply? Do I have to pump on the go in Hong Kong? Can Ashton take full bottle feeds of frozen BM? Maybe I can give Isomil, a soy-based FM?
I called the PD to check. He told me to stop for 48 hours, let the rashes subside, then re-introduce. I also call up Abott to counter-check. The nutritionist said that as Ashton was on full BM for the past 6.5 months, his body might be reacting to the sudden change in so-call nutritional composition.
Today I gave a bottle of FM again at 9am. Till now he seems fine. We are keeping our fingers and toes crossed.
