This is the rest of the file I was sent by the dietician from about calcium intake it shows lots of different food that contains calcium and the intake amount 😊
@CeeCee I have posted photos from the rest of the file which has more information on incase anyone needs it 😊
Thank you so much!!!
Wowee this is so helpful as we think our girl doesn’t get on with cows milk (real trouble pooping) so was hoping to just find the calcium elsewhere. Thank you!!
@Michelle I was about to say these calcium photos scream cmpa to me 🤣 I don't mean to be rude or intrude but I'd just like to mention that almond milk apparently isn't a good alternative and if possible swap to oat milk How are you finding the swap also? We will be introducing oat in her bottles soon as still have 6 tins of neocate 🙈🤣
@Emma-louise my son can’t have oat milk he’s allergic to oats 😬 so almond was the recommended option but has to be a calcium fortified one and he currently only has it on cereal, and used for cooking 😊
@Emma-louise soya and oat are the recommended ones because they are higher in protein than almond or coconut etc., it's not to do with the calcium. I only know this because we are dairy free and couldn't do oat or soya either so we asked the dietician about coconut milk. My LG is fine weight wise so obviously getting enough protein from somewhere, so she was not worried that we were going to try coconut. We are mainly still giving neocate though....🫤. Also not meaning to intrude 😊
@Joanne our dietician is who told us almond milk is fine to give as we cannot give oat or soya and said we just have to make sure it’s a fortified one with all the calcium,vitamins etc as he has always been under weight but he’s slowly catching up to where he should be. We are also still giving neocate too 😊
@Michelle oh that makes sense then sorry didn't want to seem to be jumping on you about it just wasn't sure you was aware that's all Ah that's the same as us then currently
@Joanne yes I believe its to do with the fat content aswell coconut and almond don't really offer enough fat I believe I won't lie allergies are a right minefield and I find depending where you live depends on the information you get given 🤦🏻♀️ Neocate definitely seems to be for the win here
@Emma-louise no worries it’s fine 😊 we have lots of allergies unfortunately 🤦🏼♀️ tomato and potato too so it’s great fun haha 🤣🤦🏼♀️
@Michelle thank you so much
@Michelle this chart is sooo helpful! they should give this to everyone!
