My Baby Has a Protein Intolerance (MSPI)

I have a 3 year old who is still allergic to dairy, eggs, nuts and sesame seeds. She actually does very well with any soy products...thank goodness! I know it can be difficult to find foods for you to eat (especially if you can't have soy), but I recently got a cookbook of recipes from the Food Allergy Network at www.foodallergy.org that seems pretty good. It is sensitive to those who are allergic to dairy, eggs, soy, wheat and nuts. You may want to look at their website for recipes and the two different cookbooks. Hope it is helpful for you.

My son is 6 months and breastfed; I have been on a restricted diet for 2 months...no dairy, soy, wheat, shellfish, peanuts or tree nuts, eggs, and citrus. The doctor allowed me to have citrus, but within a few days, he already has a red bottom. Hopefully I will be allowed another item at his next docotors visit because I am going crazy! I have basically been eating meat/fish, fruit, veggies, beans, and potatoes and boy does this get old fast especially when you need to make a quick lunch and a sandwich is out of the question. You are right, almost everything contains wheat flour or soy and a lot of prepared food contain dairy, wheat, and soy. I do not have any suggestions as far as food goes, I just read the labels, which it seems you do as well. I just wanted to let you know I feel your pain.
I do not know your experience, but my son was constantly throwing up when he was about 1.5 - 3 months old and having a lot of gas, then his neck started to get red and rough, he had eczema all over his back, and had constant diaper rash. I kept asking the docotor what was going on and of course it was oh, he just has dry skin or that rash on his neck is from drooling...so I finally looked up all the symptoms on the internet and immediately stopped eating dairy and eggs on my own (I did not know about the other foods). I then went back to the doctor and talked to the lactation specialist who immediately said "Oh this is a protein allergy". It was really frustrating, knowing something is wrong and the doctor not really listening.
I do believe if you type in MSPI (I did not know this is what it is called until now, so thank you) in google, you will get quite a few results and possibly some recipes.
I think that most kids do outgrow the allergy by the time they are 2 years old and boys are effected more than girls.

My friend's first-born also had this. She stopped breastfeeding and switched to Nutramigen hypo-allergenic formula. I believe he was able to transition to Nestle Good Start formula before he was a year old (partially hydrolyzed) and never showed allergy symptoms after that.

I don't have a solution, but want you to know you are not alone. At two weeks, my son was covered with red, raised, hot hives. The doctor told me to eliminate the top eight suspicious foods (diary, eggs, wheat, soy, chocolate, fish, shellfish, and nuts). First I stopped eating all but wheat and eggs and the hives went away. I was thrilled that wheat and eggs were not the cause. My son is now 16 weeks and I have been able to add back everything except dairy. You have it much worse than me. I am so sorry because I know how hard it was. I went to the health food store and found some foods that were specifically labeled no dairy, no soy, so eggs, etc. I found several brownie mixes that were good. You might want to visit your local health food store, whole foods, or Trader Joes. BEst Wishes.
