weird question, my mom just told me if I breast feed I cannt eat onions or it will hurt the baby. is this true?

hmmmm i'm not sure, but i'm totally going to look into this now especially since i'm planning on breast feeding! ill let you know if i find anything.

found this on a website...

Occasionally a baby will be fussy at the breast or gassy after you eat a particular food. If you notice a pattern, avoid that food for a few days. To test whether that food really was the cause, reintroduce it once and see if there's an effect. Mothers report that babies most often object to chocolate; spices (cinnamon, garlic, curry, chili pepper); citrus fruits and their juices, like oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruit; strawberries; kiwifruit; pineapple; the gassy veggies (onion, cabbage, garlic, cauliflower, broccoli, cucumbers, and peppers); and fruits with a laxative effect, such as cherries and prunes.


but who knows...i think every baby will handle different foods differently.
