In episode 2 we meet Bec! Bec had a challenging postpartum with the early onset of Cow's Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) causing extreme discomfort for her son Jasper.

At the age of 2, Jasper still has soy, cow's milk and egg allergies. Bec has created an incredible resource for parents out for this though- sharing allergy friendly meals and resources on her Instagram page.
