If you breastfed, did you find certain things you ate affected your baby? If so - what foods and what was the effect?

Dairy and Wheat for me.
Both girls were sensitive to it when I was BF'ing. Eimear would get a sore tummy and endure 3 days of pain before it was out of her system. Aoife was a spilly baby during time. ( I think it was just dairy with her but can't be sure) Now Eimear is still intolerant and Aoife is fine. |

It could be the cocoa though....
Anyone know if 3 squares could cause a reaction? I also ate Tuna and dried apricots yesterday that I don't usually have ------------- Mummy to Gabrielle and Ashley |

I definately think it can be cocoa. I had a few reactions in Andrew now already. He has been diagnosed with silent reflux and I definately see it get worse after certain things.
Hot chock been one of them, having anything to do with chocolate (no more cake). Anything more than mildy spiced he gets a bit upset and even too much dairy. Although I was advised not to cut dairy out totally but just to be a bit more aware. With McKayla the only thing was iced tea. Oh yeah normal tea and coffee makes him very upset. Can only have rooibos. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Oh grrrrr I really should be Dairy Free and Gluten free... I know I need to do it for myself.... but I guess now I need to really motivate myself, as if I'm sensitive to these things, there is a good chance that Twinkle will be too!

| Icecream does it for us. So sad really, i have been icecream free for 7 months and thought id try again a little while ago to see if he had gotten over it. that night he was grumpy, not sleeping etc... sigh. I think its because i binge, like if i do have icecream i eat just about the whole tub lol. the odd bit of dairy or iceblock etc doesnt seem to bother him. |
