Hello All,

I have permission to post.  I am wondering if this baby is reacting to
foremilk, given that the mom is feeding and then pumping at most feeds in
an effort to store milk for when she can no longer BF.  The medication that
she must go back on is contraindicated and there are no substitutes.
Thoughts would be most appreciated!!!  Thanks in advance.

Joan Greenberg RN IBCLC

the baby is really gassy. The pediatrician and nurse practitioner are
stumped.

Diet: I have elimated dairy for 4 weeks on Wednesday. I elimated spices in
cooking for 2 weeks. Right now we are only using an Italian blend on lunch
and dinner. I drink about 2 cups of coffee and don't drink any more after
noon.  I do eat granola bars and dark chocolate. I usually have eggs, multi
grain bread with peanut butter or cereal with oat/almond milk for
breakfast.  I have been eating a lot of almonds as snacks. I don't eat fake
sugars.   I'm running out of ideas for what to eliminate and food is really
bland at this point.

Breast feeding: Because I will have to go back on the meds that I cant
breast feed on soon, I am trying to stockpile as much milk as I can. I
usually feed the baby then pump 15- 60 minutes later depending on the hour
of the day. I pump enough for a bottle for brian's evening feeding then
freeze the rest. One breast fills up much more than the other so I let the
baby start on that smaller side and pump from that smaller one longer. I
pump the larger one just until it feels comfortable because I was having
painful let down which has stopped.
Any recommendations?
