It’s been 2 weeks of yellow poop with little straining, and this would be the time for me to start re-introducing possible allergens back into my diet. I even bought some shredded wheat, so I could see if wheat bothers her by eating it in the morning – it takes about 4 hours for what I eat to hit my milk, and then another 1-ish hours for that to bug her, one assumes. By eating the possible offender in the morning, I should be able to see if it’s the offender bothering her if she gets fussy, and not just her normal afternoon fussiness busting out. Babies are hard to experiment with – no wonder we don’t do a lot of clinical trials with them!
Anyhow, I keep putting off the experiment because I don’t want to handle that fussiness any more than I absolutely have to. Coward mom.
Did I tell you about my recurring nightmare that I eat dairy without realizing it? I have this nightmare about every 2 nights – I am eating something, get about halfway through, look down and realize… Oh MY GOD!!! I Just Ate Cheese! What Do I Do??? I Need To Make Myself Throw Up! WHere’s the Ipecac? Then lots of running around happens and I wake up.
It’s kind of fucked up that I now have nightmares about eating cheese.
