But I'd like to add to the list. IRON. Too much iron post partum. Many women I run into take their pre-natal and an iron supplement long past 10 days post-partum. If I was an 7lb infant with that much iron coming thru my source of food I'd have a really bad tummy too. I know not ALL babies are effected by iron but some are. If the mom had a problem in the beginning with her pre-natal, I take that as a cue and suggest switching to a regular daily multi-vitamin. I like all Pat's ideas too.
