Any Vegan or Non-Dairy people out there? I need advice! - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

Hey Mamas,

So my youngest was diagnosed with a dairy allergy at 3 weeks of age. I cut all dairy out of my diet while I breastfed and now she is on special formula. Although the doc said I can start to give her dairy when she turns one, I'm not comfortable with it. I am eating a vegan diet and would like my family to follow in my footsteps. Sooooooo,

Any advice on what to give her once she is off of formula? I'm nervous about soy milk, but I'm thinking that may be the best option. Will she get enough fat and nutrients from non-dairy milks?

Thanks for your help!
