Topic: Pepti Jnr Posted: 09 December 2006 at 1:19pm |
This is a question for the mums who give this to their kids.
Ella has eczema on her face and since using the pepti jnr shes broken out in little pimples around her nose and on her chin. Is this normal? Shes always had really clear skin apart from the dry patches

Could be a reacton to the formula "on" the skin... does she have wide necked bottles? Dribbling when drinking?? I have no idea how Pepti Jr works, try the EBB GORD girls they might be more helpful!

We didnt get a rash when we were using it. Because it is low allergin i wouldnt think it would be the pepti if you havent had a reaction from std fromula. It may be a coincidence?? Although its worth mentioning to your pead because you may want to try Neocate. You can purchase Neocate with the same SAN.

I would have thought the same as Maria - whatever reaction Ella had to standard formula should be lessened rather than made worse by the PJ. They usually trial kids on PJ first to see how they cope and if no or minimal improvement then they look at Neocate. But I have never heard of PJ making symptoms worse than standard formula.
Could be just a coincidence? Or have you introduced any new solids lately? If you have it could be a reaction to that?
Or it could just be an unfortunate atopic thing. Both my twins have shocking 'cradle cap' in their eyebrows which is the start of exczema despite being on the Neocate and completely dairy-free, egg free breastmilk.

Oh and it could also be her skin 'balancing out' if the PJ helps clear up the exczema then it might affect the oil balance in her skin temporarily? Not sure on that one but just a random thought?

Yer i think ill jsut try it out but the thing is i dont see any improvement in her skin and i "thought" she was improving poop wise but it was teething explosions  She hasnt been in almost 2 days and i can see her really trying and nothing happening even with her lactose stuff in her bottle. I feel so sorry for her.
Shes also started some wierd coughing thing since being on the pepti. I dont know its all so strange to me

I don't know if the PJ will help with the constipation at all, we had the opposite problem with Maya, she was dehydrated from diarrohea.
Just a thought - is the stuff they gave you for the constipation dairy-based? Coz with a name like lactulose it could well be, in which case Ella is still being exposed to milk?

Hehehe! I was just going to say don't worry bout the coughing because it increases with teething (extra saliva production etc) but since you've worked it out haha that's funny.

No worries. I used to be a paranoid Mum with Maya. Now I am far too exhausted to be paranoid. Half the time I don't even wake up when they cry and Willie has to kick me to make me get up
*suddenly realises he should be getting up to them too*
