Egg, nuts, peanuts, wheat and gluten can all stay in ur breast milk so it could be any keeps a food diary and make notes of ur sons reactions and see if any of them cause a reaction within 24-48hrs of consuming it. How long have you cut dairy and wheat out of ur diet? It can take anywhere between 2-6 weeks for it to leave ur system and his so he can still have flare ups and reactions up to 6 weeks after stopping x

Is it just the rash or does he have other symptoms as well? X

@Willow I cut out dairy 3 weeks ago, irritability, blood in stools went away and rash got significantly better, but I noticed that I’m eating a lot of wheat and the rash is back.

No harm in cutting it out, so sorry ur baby seems to be allergic to quite a few things I hope he grows out of it soon, it's a lot of hassle for you but ur a good mum for being willing to do that, I just went straight onto hydrolysed formula x

I cut dairy, egg and soy to begin with as the proteins are similar. If you notice it flaring up when you have it then there is no harm in cutting and then you can gradually reintroduce one at a time once all symptoms are cleared. I introduced soy first as I was less certain that was causing a reaction, then egg when a paediatrician suggested it was unlikely, then dairy (which caused a reaction).

I'd actually be doing a food diary instead of cutting foods here and there Baby can react to absolutely anything so you need to make a connection through a food diary of what you eat and what baby's reactions are This looks like eczema so have you been creaming baby every nappy change? Maybe it's the cream not working, there's alot of possible things that could be causing it so I would just go around cutting foods out of your diet otherwise you will be super restricted

I'd personally try cutting out egg next

I would go for egg
