[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC had the rotoviruses vaccines as scheduled. He had a terrible gas pains that he would wake wailing in middle of nights for weeks after vaccine. Diarrhea also lasted just as long. Dr said it was coincidence so we scheduled him for 2nd vaccine appropriately spaced. The same symptoms appeared and last just as long and we then realized he was having a bad reaction and dr did not Rec the last round for the rotavirus. After the first vaccine he also had a change in his dirty diapers which were green instead of the mustard yellow they had always been steak with mucous globs. After trial and error I eliminated dairy and soy as he was strictly BF. After a week and a half his diapers were back to normal. However he is now 19 mos old and still can’t tolerate dairy. Did anyone else ha e a similar experience with the timing of the dairy intolerance having onset later around 4 mos old? It was clear he wasn’t before then because his diapers were normal and looked healthy. [/quote] Yes, this happened to our DS. His diapers were green with bloody mucus and smelled terrible post rotavirus vaccination at 2 months, and I truly believe it's when his dairy issues began. From that point on he had eczema and reacted terribly to any dairy in my diet at all. The issues cleared up when I eliminated dairy while breastfeeding. We ended up skipping the remaining vaccinations with our Ped's support (he agreed DS seemed to have a bad reaction to the vaccination, and this is a documented thing, so it's not like we were being crazy about it). DS ended up being allergic to milk, an allergy he outgrew by age 3. I'm definitely not convinced the rotavirus vaccination [i]caused[/i] the allergy, but with as little as we know about the cause of allergies I can't eliminate it as a contributing factor. He was also allergic to eggs and is still allergic to some tree nuts, so this could have been something that was brewing long before the vax or even the reason why he reacted to badly to it. I really don't know. We decided not to do the rotavirus vaccine with our 2nd child. We are not anti-vac and have mostly followed the CDC schedule for everything else. [/quote]
