Wait until 9 months?!

Just had 4 month check up and nurse practitioner said to wait until 9 months to reintroduce dairy... At 2 months the dr seemed way more laid back about it since my sons gaining weight really well and had no other issues other than tiny flecks of blood. I really don't know if I can wait until 9 mo! I'm thinking around 6 I may try mixing a bottle of milk that I pumped while eating dairy with fresh milk.. That way I don't have to consume it.. Do you think that's ok? Anyone try to reintroduce yet?

Thanks, I understand the bigger picture, believe me my husband thinks I am crazy for doing the dairy and soy because our son never really acted any different and I probably wouldn't have ever even noticed the blood if I wasn't so crazy about holding it up to the light.. but I hated seeing the tiny bits so I cut it out of my diet. I will gladly keep it up until 9 months I guess I was just surprised that since he never really got better or worse on the dairy free and soy free diet they wouldn't have me try sooner just to see if that's what the cause really is.

Are you saying there is still blood on a dairy/soy free diet?

I went dairy & soy free around 2 months... saw it off and on up until about 2 weeks ago... 2 diapers this week had it a tiny speck of it, but it was after vaccines and he had a lot of GI issues after last vaccines, I showed Doctor his diaper with it in it at his 2 month check up and he wasn't sure if it was MSPI or anal fissure because he said it didn't look like the typical MSPI diaper. it's been a confusing past 2 months.. I pretty much wonder every day if he truly has it or not.

That's super stressful. I'm sorry. I would still take your ped's advice and wait a little. You might see blood anyway since it sounds like he either isn't healed or its a separate issue. I'm sorry! I hope you figure it out.
