Question about trialing foods while BFing.

DD has had mucusy green poops for several weeks and I've been off dairy and soy for just over 3 weeks. Her diapers have gotten a little better and have changed back to yellow with very little (if any) blood. So that's a little improvement. I'll take it! I also cut out nuts, wheat, and eggs for about a week. Well, I started eating eggs on Monday (it's baked in some oatmeal bars that I made). Her stools have definitely not gotten worse and no other symptoms have popped up (that I've noticed). Is it safe to assume that she's okay with eggs? Should I expect her symptoms/diapers to get worse if I add in a food that I've eliminated?

Re: Question about trialing foods while BFing.
Assuming her diapers were normal before you began trailing you should be good to go
, since everything says 4 day wait.
We did have a five day reaction but when trailing I had eggs, started on sat and did not have reaction till weds. We went from normal pooping yellow brown to bright green mucusy diahreah and terrible crankiness on Thursday. I had eggs for three days ( sat, sun, mon) then a reaction on day five (weds)
It took us three weeks to stabilize w/o milk and soy and and additional 2.5 when I went top 8 free. About a week into the top 8 I realized that although things were improved we were still having green diahreah so I cut out corn and within a week things had gone to normal and we trialed eggs. Currently trialling fish, with nuts and wheat next weekish.
So far corn oil is ok, just corn or popcorn got obvious reactions. Lo can also handle soybean oil
