A few weeks ago, lo broke out pretty badly and was having some tummy distress. His pedi recommended I limit my dairy, but I decided to eliminate it altogether just to see what happened. Within 2 days his skin totally cleared up and he seemed less fussy. He's bf and ff'ed and still on a milk based formula (gentlease) so I don't think he has a milk allergy but it definitely helped. It's been hard for me to give up dairy, especially cheese,since it's my favorite thing to eat.
Anyway, dh thought he was being nice and brought me home a giant banana berrry smoothie from smoothie king. I had more than half of it before it dawned on me that it probably has dairy. My tummy doesn't tolerate dairy so well sometimes so when I started hurting I thought of it. I looked it up online and sure enough it has sorbet and whey protein. I hope it doesn't cause lo pain. I feel so badly !
Re: So upset- unknowingly ate dairy
I am sure everything will be okay, just watch it from here on out
I did the same thing with broccoli, it is my favorite vegetable, it came with my dinner at Ruby Tuesday and I scarfed 1/2 of it down before I realized what I was doing. I never noticed LO to be gassy the following few days after.
