Successful Breastfeeding Blog
Evidence based advice, support, and education for modern families.
Are you breastfeeding and have been told to give up dairy? This advice may have come from your doctor, a good friend, or another breastfeeding momma. I hear this advice given regularly as a solution to solve certain symptoms in babies- especially in mom groups!
As a lactation expert, this is one of the most frustrating pieces of advice people give to my clients. Gassy baby? Give up dairy! Baby spits up? Give up dairy! Fussy baby? Give up dairy! Giving up dairy seems to be the "cure all" to everything these days- when it's actually usually NOT the answer.
