We Are Officially FPIES Free at 15 Months!

When we started introducing solids, we found out our lil monkey has food protein-induced enterocolitis (FPIES). Acute triggers are rice, eggs and soy. We had the worse reaction with egg. She vomited 8x over 14 hrs and was pale and lethargic.


Navigating FPIES was tricky. The hardest part was introducing new foods. With FPIES, a baby can react to anything like literally any, kind.of.food. And a baby can have multiple triggers.


FPIES parents, I know how hard each food introduction can be. The "wait and see" is mentally exhausting. Failing another food is disheartening. Please know that kids do outgrow FPIES. Keep your chin up and do your best. It gets better eventually, I promise!
