I recommend Rice Dream rice milk and almond milk. My toddler is allergic to milk also and we've had a tough time since birth. I've been reading about allergies and they're caused by a defiency of certain nutrients. You should also watch out for wheat allergies, oat allergies and others. I've read many articles saying that probiotics and proper nutritional supplements will help overcome allergies. Make sure to give plenty of protein and iron rich foods.

One very important thing you should be aware of is that a dairy allergy is NOT to the lactose like most people think, but rather to the protein in milk, whey and casein. Coffee creams, whipped creams and other things that say "non dairy" are NOT dairy free, just lactose free. Look for "dairy free" items and search ingredients for whey and casein or sodium caseinate. I hope this helps.
