Ohhhhh wait a minute - this DOCTOR told you the baby had a 'milk intolerance' to your breast milk?
:shock: :shock: :shock:
me to find a new doctor. If your 'motherly instincts' tell you something is not right - keep searching - even if it means a second or third opinion.[/quote]
=======================================
I didn't catch this on the first reading. I'm 77 years old, been around masses of babies, and never heard of any kid allergic to mother's milk. Often to something YOU have eaten, check out your own diet and make it more natural. THEN start collecting whatever milk you can from your own self, and freeze it in tiny bottles. You can give it to the baby a sip at a time, but remember, write down every thing you eat or drink. NO DIET DRINKS WITH ASPARTAME!! Listen to your doctor, but also go to the oldest " Old Wife" you know and talk to her. Listen to her.
There's lots on the internet about doctors who know everything and we don't have his/her education and should listen and do as THEY say...the results vary. Listen to your own gut feeling.
