hello I wondered if anyone could help with advice or has had this problem before my little girl is 5 weeks old today and she is on cow gate formula and being sick when she has her milk and coming up in little red dots/spots does this mean she is allergic and can I swap her milk over to kendamil or something else? Or does she need to be seen first #firsttimemum #lookingforadvice

Hi Alisha2005,

Have you spoken to your Health Visitor? If not you could try calling her or you can call Just One Number on 0300 300 0123 to speak to a member of their skilled team.

There is also lots of information on the Just one Norfolk website that you might find useful too. -

I hope this helps and I hope that if there are other parents who read this who have experienced similar things they could share their experience with you.

Hello Thankyou for your reply I have messaged them and they advised me to ring my GP in the morning but I don’t know whether to change milk or wait as obviously she needs feeding but when she has her milk she is being sick so she not really getting enough milk going into her stomach if that makes sense
