Can Cow’s Milk Allergy Cause Problem With Sleep In Infant?
Yes, it can be difficult to differentiate cow’s milk allergy from colic. However, your doctor will be able to do some blood test to establish the diagnosis of allergy. Infants with cow’s milk allergy often have very frequent night time awakenings and their total sleep time is reduced. Crying during the daytime is common and the infant appears to be fussy. Problems with behavior and sleep can be easily resolved once cow’s milk based formula is discontinued. Symptom should normalize within about 2 weeks.
