I was wondering if someone could tell me how common is a milk allergy.  My three year old son seems to be allergic to milk.  If he has dairy in his diet he is really constipated.  I mean there is blood in his stools.  The doctor however are not worroied about it and just tell me to give him plenty of juice and fruits and vegetables.  He drinks contstantly juice water and sometimes koolaid. What can you give them for a substitue.  We have tried the soy milk and he hates it. I'm wondering how commonis a milk allergy.
