breast milk lactose

Milk allergies are different from lactose intolerance - lactose-free or low-lactose dairy foods are not appropriate for a milk allergy (to milk protein). There is excellent, well-researched information here calcium for dairy-free diets: http://www.godairyfree.org/Table/Health-Info/Calcium/ and the whole site has a ton of information on non-dairy foods. I avoid both gluten and all dairy, so I use it often.

How do I produce more breast milk?? I am lactose so i rarely drink milk nor lactose milk and with my daughter I didn't produce much so I have to give her formula so with my baby boy coming I want to breastfeed him.. any suggestions??

Its been a little over a month since I had my first daughter. After 4-5 days of having her she rejected feeding from my breasts and 6-8 days she rejected my milk completely. I just recently found out that the reason why is that she is lactose intolerant. Well I'm still producing milk and I am now completely engorged. I have tried the "No More Milk"tea from Earth Mama <3 Angel Baby, I've done the cabbage trick, warm showers, tight bras, everything.

No..

im lactose an tolerant too and ima breast feed but i eat milk proudutes and drink them anyway for my baby even though it hurts my stomach

t done any research only my common knowledge of regular milk is that the cows are pumped with hormones to force them to produce milk even when they are not feeding their calfs even long after their calf is grown and those same hormones work the same with women who consume the milk or dairy product from said cows) could this be why my breast milk hasn't come yet because I'm not adding any hormones like that to my body?

You think if I eat salad it will make my breast milk taste funny ? I heard something about broccoli making baby fussy or something . What about salad ? Also I know during pregnancy there was like pregnancy "super food" like strawberries & a few others . Any tips for breast feeding diets ? I want to have the best breast milk ever !

Put a tsp of corn syrup in her bottle of breast milk. U can do it as often as needed.

The less dairy you eat or drink the better. Try almond milk or lactose free milk. And chocolate has lots of caffeine.

His issues started after a month of being on Nutramigen. And Now I know why. Milk has 2 main protiens, Casien and Lactose. Lactose is a secondary sugar protien. Lactose is usually what most intolerant babies can't handle, not the casien. Lactose hits the body almost immediately after drinking it while casien takes a while to build up in the system. Now the spitting up, fussiness, diarreah, rash, projectile vommiting didnt start until a month of being on Nutramigen.

I've been having the same problem. I used to be a milk addict. I talked to my doctor and she said it may be the baby is lactose intolerant and that it affects me.

Yes this happened until I was 15 weeks and now I can only drink lactose free milk. I tried soy, milk, rice, and none worked for me except lactose free.

At this point the baby can't be lactose intolerant because s/he isn't ingesting the milk. Baby is still getting all the nutrients through blood. Most likely it's just a hormonal change in your body causing the sensitivity. It wouldn't hurt to try soy milk or almond milk.

u could have a allergy called lactose intolerance which basically means u cant break down the sugars from lactose which is mainly found in dairy products there are tests for this with your doctor{breath tests} and is very common.

The pediatrician said it could be a form of a milk allergy and to put him on soy milk. He has been on soy milk for a month now and the rash is gone but his stools are still horribly loose. In order to keep the stools from being completely liquid we have to feed him the BRATTY diet, and this only gets the stool to a "sludge" consistency not even anything remotely formed. He probably has 4 or 5 dirty diapers a day. I also give him a daily dose of probiotics.

My theory is, if breast milk is so much better for a baby than formula, then why do you need to feed a every 2 to 3 hours on breast milk and every 3 to 4 hours on formula? Breast milk is natural, so it can be deemed as "better" and easier on the babys tummy, but formula has a garenteed amount of vitamins and minerals in every serving and as a mommy, i want to make sure my baby is getting all the needed vitamins and minerals in every feeding.

Have you tried soy or almond milk. I too am lactose intolerant and I use soy milk. I also take digestive enzymes. Hope you find relief!

Is soy formula safe to give baby boys? I have heard that there are hormones in it.

Also breast milk produces more of any nutrients the baby is missing when he/she is born to ensure baby is getting nutrients. Did you know there is no lactose in our breast milk as there is in cows? which means naturally we are not even suppose to have anything lactose! A lot of people don't know these things. I would do some research and I guarantee you will not want to formula feed. I hope you breast feed!! :) mentally prepare yourself and don't let people tell you it's hard.

When I took care of my little cousins I felt veryy uneasy about giving them.wjole.milk bleh its nasty and does nothing for you. I notcied my cousins had a hard time digesting it as well. In society we are led to believe thaf milk is good for you but all the vitamins you find in it can be found in other healthier milk. I started to give my cousins NESTLE NIDO POWDER MILK and they loved it. .

I have never found a good alternative to milk. Ive tried almond milk and soy milk and nothing is really ever as satisfying as real milk.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community! With lactose intolerance or gluten intolerance, your symptoms will not occur 100% of the time. Just because you drank milk and the symptoms didn't happen, does not mean you don't have lactose intolerance. I believe that you need to eliminate 100% of all lactose for at least 2 weeks to know if it helps and to eliminate 100% of all gluten for at least 2 months to know if it helps.

Hello, You can get blood tests like RAST or skin ***** test done to find whether if the child is allergic to milk or not.That is the only way of confirming the allergic reaction. Lactose intolerance can be tested by elimination diet. You should get investigated for this from an allergist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.

The baby may show reaction towards breast milk also if the mother is taking dairy products in her diet.Diagnosis of milk allergy can be confirmed after skin ***** or patch tests and food challenge tests.Confirmation can be done with blood tests like RAST.It also helps in differentiating milk allergy from lactose intolerance.You need to consult an allergy specialist for that. Treatment involoves elimination of all dairy products from the diet.

Anyone else get crazy gas from milk? I drank milk last night before bed, and couldn't sleep. I was in so much pain. My chest was killing me, and I felt like I couldn't breathe. Should I tell my doctor? Or maybe switch to another kind of milk?

Almost everyone is allergic to cow's milk. That's why mammals breast feed. When you don't or can't breast feed, one thing missing is the immune system building colostrum found in early breast milk. No formula is healthy -- they are just the best we can do sometimes.
