baked milk challenge...

We took William to the allergist for a baked milk challenge.  (Wish I had remembered to take some pics.)  Doc said that the numbers from William's bloodwork for dairy indicate that they are low enough for him to try dairy in a baked good.  So we brought some muffins in that had 1/4 cup of regular milk.  Initially, they gave him 1/8 of it and waited 15 minutes.  William was fine.  So they gave him another 1/8 and waited 15 minutes.  William was fine.  Then they gave him 1/4 and waited 15 minutes.  William was fine.  Eventually, William had the entire muffin and was FINE!!!  We spent at least 2 hours at the allergist, but WOW...  Our boy can start having some dairy!!!  The allergist didn't really give us a game plan, but said to try chocolate chips in the muffins and move on to some cheese breads.  After that, we could slowly introduce different baked goods that have dairy and see how he does.

We took William to get some McDonald's for the first time to celebrate!!  (McD's has whey in some of their food.)  YAY!!!  So grateful to the Lord for allowing William to start tolerating some foods with dairy!
