my new little grandson was fussy after his mom had pizza. I remember when I nursed my childrend that certain foods the mother eats can bother the baby. Does anyone know any other foods that do this besides tomatoes?

im nursing with mysecond child and she doesnt like it after i have eaten any type of salad, or drank lemonade.

Though I never had ANY problems except with apricots; gave her the runs. But they say caffeine, broccoli, strawberries, nuts, eggs, milk may cause problems. Though I wouldn't say that him being fussy was because of the pizza...now if he did it a second time I'd consider it. If it happened again I'd quit pizza until he was weaned.

Dairy products upset many newborn tummies.....babies are often lactose intolerant of cow milk based products.

A lot of babies are also sensitive in general to acidic foods:
tomatos, citrus (oranges, lemons) products.

Some babies just have colic and you can't really do that much about their gas and crying. It tends to disappear between the 4th and 5th months, and generally affects boys more than girls.

Throughout my breastfeeding months I often referred to the Dr. Sears Baby Book & the Dr. Sears Breastfeeding Book. I also used www.babycenter.com a lot.

Good luck!

i eat anything i want except alcohol of coarse and my son never had a problem, those are coinsidences to me. what goes in your tummy does not go in you breastmilk what is in your blood does of coarse dairt can cause extra lactose in you breastmilk which may cause upset bellies

I think it is very dependent on the child.

My first couldn't stand when I ate jalapenos.

My second couldn't stand when I ate broccoli or onions.

So many, and it all depends. Any diary product, cheese, milk, ice cream etc., garlic, anything spicy, anything too sugary, other citrus foods, soda, coffee.

There are no specific foods in mom's milk that will universally cause problems. every baby is different. Usually if there is a problem it is due to dairy in mom's diet, but not always.
Anyway, here are some links that might help.

My son doesn't care what I've eaten, he always likes my milk!

It really does depend on the child. Our daughter was also bothered by any tomato product I ate or fresh tomato.
It didn't bother our son.

Broccoli bothered him. Onions as well.

Your daughter may want to omit those things for a time- and reintroduce later. She will not have to delete these things from her diet forever....just until the 3rd month or before.

Keep mylicon drops on hand and when your grandson has a reaction or seems to, have mom and dad give him a dose of mylicon and it works well.

Our daughter was also bothered by caffeine, chocolate- due to the caffeine, spices that were hot such as curry, and onions. Nothing else bothered her.

Good job for supporting her- she is lucky to have you!
