Lactose Intolerance?

[alaskanteach]

Can a pregnancy CAUSE lactose intolerance? I have never had a problem before, but now I am having digestive issues. Can this happen? Is it permanent?

i had that with my first pg and am having it again. although at this point i don't drink any cow's milk and have simply stayed away from ice cream. with my first pg it got to the point where i would simply throw up if i had dairy so i ended up avoiding it altogether.

after the pg, i would say it mostly went away. i still seemed to have a minor problem now and again if i eat too much dairy, but i seem to be okay as long as i don't drink the cow's milk, etc. i was really disappointed because i was going to eat ice cream to get extra calcium LOL!
