how long for my food to impact milk?

I'm trying to figure out if there was something I ate yesterday that Harris really wasn't "cool" with but I don't know how long it takes what I eat to affect my milk. Is it within a couple hours? Or several hours? A day?

I've tried to search a little for the answer online but haven't found anything. I hope someone here has an idea. Thanks.

    It will be more like a couple of hours. He may have just swallowed a bit to much air though...at that age they still have pains from gas- instead of passing it easily.

    He's definitely swallowing a lot of air and I know he's not burping it all up. He spits up a ton after some meals and was really fussy the last few days with gas pain. I just didn't know how to be able to tell if it was from swallowed air or from something I've eaten. Thanks.

    My LC said it is less than 6 hours.
