Can nursing mothers eat strong-flavored or spicy foods?

Yes, in general. There are many cultures who regularly eat spicy foods and strong-flavored foods, and there is no evidence that a greater percentage of these babies are fussy, gassy, or have other problems with the foods their moms eat. We do know that some strong flavors, like garlic, can pass into the milk but it does not seem to cause problems. In fact, one study showed that babies nursed better after mom ate garlic.

@mrsruvalcaba ok thank you so much

no she doesn't, trust me I've asked a lot of times and all the responses I get is no... I wouldn't be worried

@mrsruvalcaba would your baby get fussy

I was worried to especially since my 26 wker is in the NICU and I was told no.. so I still eat spicy things, but you can always check with your Dr

@mrsruvalcaba omg really its because I pumped and gave my baby the milk.

I actually asked that question to my NICU Dr and the NICU nurses and said that's a myth
