I received this email from a good customer who is also a Ped in my area. Theese kinds of situations frustrate and baffle me. Please lend me any helpfull hints I can give this mom. Mom works 3 days a week and has never had much luck pumping with other 2 babies. Breastfeeds when she is with baby, pumps only at lunch break ( works in a busy ped clinic) formula feeds at daycare. I think the pulling off the breast is nipple confusion/frustration. The stool changes baffle me. Any help appreciated. Here was her question to me: Baby is 4 months old. Jessica-- I'm not sure what's going on with my little toot! It honestly seems like MY milk is hurting her stomach when she nurses. She'll just nurse a few minutes and then she keeps coming off crying--she'll get back on and take a few sucks and then comes off crying again. This has been going on for about a week now. She does not do this with formula at all. Her stools are liquid dark green with NO substance/curds in them at all and she has the most foul smelling gas I've ever seen in a baby. Could it be my diet?? I have had one patient that was diagnosed as being allergic to his mother's milk--is that a possibility?? I feel really sad at the thought of discontinuing nursing, but it's almost to that point. If you have any suggestions please e-mail me at Thanks for any help Jessica Donahue RN IBCLC *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
