Does anyone have experience with the foods they eat affecting their breast milk? Starting to think that garlic in my diet may be making baby windy. Had garlic on a pizza last night and he was quite difficult for a few hours (pushing and straining and crying after feeds) and tonight I had a garlic bread and he has been awful 😣he gets pretty windy anyway and it's the only time he ever cries as he's usually so content. The health visitor even commented that she could tell I'm not used to seeing him cry.
Poor thing has been switching from totally relaxed to screaming and straining and then back to relaxed for the last couple of hours

I had a curry one night, not overly spicy but the next day little ones nappies were explosive x

I hadn't even thought how food could affect him! Hoping it gets out of my system soon! X

it should do, normally with in a day it's gone. I was extra careful what I had after that, although he loves spicy food now x

He screamed the house down on and off for hours last night 😭 luckily he calmed down at bed time. Definitely going to watch what I'm eating a bit more! It sounded so painful 😣

Oh hun hopefully he will be better in no time! Have you tried massaging him? Or maybe a warm bath? You could also lay him tummy down on your knees and move them side to side. I know how hard it is when baby is colicky and you are tired ! Xx

I've tried massaging which usually helps a lot but not last night 😣 will have to try putting him on my knees! My partner was on a night shift last night but luckily baby calmed down just after he went to work! Xx
