Going to ask my Pedi about it but googled it and seems possible for my LO. Anyone have any experience?

    I believe. LO was having green diapers with mucus and they stunk like vinegar.  I started giving her a pacifier which spaced her feedings out from about every hour or so to every 3-4 hours.  She was a grazer and now she eats when she is hungry, empties a boob and many times goes on to the other boob.  Her diapers are now smelling like they did, they are more frequent, and they are much more mustard colored. And my life has totally changed from my "grazer" baby changing into a regular feeder.

    Lactose Overload is when baby gets too much lactose.  This happens when baby eats too much fore milk and not enough hind milk.  Baby eats more getting more lactose, gaining lots of weight and having funky diapers.
