BF'ers...Food!

Tash2315 · February 2012

Are there any foods that you are avoiding....or found out the hard way that you shouldn't eat?

So far, I'm not eating tomato-basil soup and tacos....DD was fussy and would NOT sleep on the evenings I had those for dinner. I'm not even going to attempt cheesy-broccoli soup (I made a huge batch when I was pg and froze it...bummer!)

Yes, tomato soup did not sit well at all with him. I had asparagus 2 days in a row and it gave him gas. I try to monitor the ice cream too. I don't drink milk and use minimum cheese so ice cream is my weakness with dairy.

I'm not really avoiding anything. The other night I had a buffalo chicken sandwich and he had a horrible night. Not sure if it would of even hit my breastmilk that fast. I've had plenty of other spicy foods that haven't affected him.

Yep...peanut butter sends him into screaming fits. This makes me so sad because I love PB Crying

So far just broccoli which is killing me, I never realized how much broccoli I eat! I L-O-V-E Panera's Broccoli Cheese soup and it was one of my weekly lunches. I also used to steam it at least twice a week for dinner.

I pretty much have to avoid all dairy because it gives DS so much gas. He wasn't sleeping at all and I slowly started cutting it out and he sleeps from 8 p.m. - 3 a.m. now! It's so hard though because I love cheese!

Peanut Butter and I had a garden burger yesterday and he screamed for two hours.....

100% dairy free, including hidden dairy (in breads, baked goods, cooking anything with butter...) and beans. The one time I had beans LO was a mess.

Caffeine! Every time I have it lo is crazy and stays up all night crying and fussy, ITs like she is on crack. I had to cut it out completely and she has been fine since. I miss chai lattes the most

My LO doesn't like anything that involves cabbage. I had a ruben and she was cranky from the sauerkraut. Then another time I had cole slaw. No good again. So I guess I'll have corned beef without cabbage for St Patty's Day.

I try to avoid onions, broccoli, tomatoes, anything too acidic. She had a fussy period around 6-7 weeks where I was scared I was going to have to cut dairy but my pedi said that babies just have to work out the kinks in their digestive systems and it just takes a bit for them to mature and not be so sensitive.

Nothing yet. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.

Obvious dairy, tomato sauce, spicy foods, gassy veggies. Too much caffeine or sugar

Same here. I have noticed that when I eat pancakes or beans his poop smells completely awful though.

This. Not sure if I am "lucky" or I just don't make the connection between what I ate and LO being fussy.

haha yep. she had an awesome night on Thursday so now I'm trying to remember what I ate

mbf124 · February 2012

LO is allergic to soy so I stopped eating that. I think she's also sensitive to dairy so I cut out even hidden dairy.

Rosie24 · February 2012

I still eat everything but like pp said, I definitely could just not be making a connection between what I ate and her fussy periods.

alber2am · February 2012

I have eaten shrimp fajitas twice and both times he was up all night with gas. I think it is the bell peppers b/c I eat spicy foods quite often as well as onions and shrimp and thoses things don't seem to bother him.
