Anybody else with tummy issues ??? *TMI*

[Barcino]

ok sorry full of ?? today..

My 5 month old DD started having excema last month. It got really bad three weeks ago. I went ahead and cut allergens now I am almost two weeks into it. I have cut dairy, soy, eggs, now tomatoes as well..

I am really having tummy issues with lots of foul smelling gas *TMI!!!!* - I hate to talk about it but I am hoping this is something that poeple have run into. I am thinking I am eating too many carbs maybe? what do I do!

I used to eat a lot of cottage cheese, yogurt, milk but now that is gone and instead of being better off... I am so much worse. Baby is better.. but I toot all day long. Oh my - I can't believe I am fessing up to this on a public forum!

If your babe is reacting to foods through your BM, then the chances are good that you have leaky gut- which in turn can cause food allergies in you. (Digestive Wellness by Elizabeth Lipski is a great book to read about this stuff.) After I did the ELISA allergy test for DD, I did one for myself just for fun really... and was shocked when I got back a list of foods that I was allergic to!!

I would really work on gut healing for yourself, as well as keeping a food journal. If you're already keeping a food journal and recording symptoms for your LO, just start writing down your symptoms too. That will really help you figure out which foods are bothering you.
