Hello!  Perhaps this topic has been discussed already? I'm hoping for some
insight here.
I have received a number of calls from different mom's who's babies are
 consistently *fussy*.  The common denomimator here is that they all see this
one ped in town.  He suggests that their babies are lactose intolerant and
they should be given a drop of lactaid before each nursing to help with the
fussiness.  The mom who most recently called said the doc suggested a 3 day
trial of these drops and then they'll talk about what to do.  Apparently, he
told her that if baby was on a soy abm this wouldn't be an issue.  When I
suggested a consultation to the mom, she was reluctant as she believed the
*problem* was her milk. ugh!  And I'm saying to myself what is going on
here??? Have you heard of this????
Your thoughts would be apperciated.  Thanks!
Elisa
