I received a call from a local Pediatrician yesterday, who has a mom that
smells of garlic when nursing. The mom came into her office, and the Pedi
smelled the baby(6 weeks old), smelled the mom, smelled the MILK...and all
smelled fine. Then she smelled the mom/baby pair after they started
nursing, and there was definitely a pungent garlic odor. There has been no
garlic in the diet, mom is on no meds or herbal supplements. Incidentally,
the baby is, and has always been, very fussy 24 hours a day...milk products
were removed without any improvement.
Any ideas???
