Food Allergies Treatment

Question by Kay08: How come every time I eat peanuts, a few hours later I have severe pains in my stomach?
It gets so bad I can’t even walk and want to scream. Would this be an allergy or something else? But only when I eat peanuts….?

You are probably allergic to peanuts and nuts and it causes a reaction in your stomach.

Hi, I’m breastfeeding our 3.5-month-old girl & I feed her about every 2.5 hours. At night, I feed her upon waking. But, after about the 4a or 5a or 6a feeding (depending on when the last feeding was), she twists and turns and pulls up her legs. I know it’s stomach cramps. And they seem to last until about 8a or 9a or 10a, and then she’s fine for the rest of the day. And yes, they do seem to abate when I feed her, but they certainly disrupt her sleep. To clarify, she is NOT screaming or crying when she has these cramps (she doesn’t have colic), just grunting and groaning. I can usually let her lay there & work it out for awhile, but she will work up to A scream, then I pick her up & try to burp & feed her. After that, if I lay her down, the cramps start up again. I have eliminated much from my diet, but not cow’s milk yet, should I try Soy milk? Or, could it be that I just have to be sure she burps when I feed her at night. … I’m a new mom. … Anyone else experience this?

We had to feed the baby formula for 48 hours because of a serious colon-allergy she developed. During that time my wife pumped her milk out, up to 6 ounces at a time. Now 48 hours later her milk production has been seriously diminished, and she is receiving the baby stimulation but we are worried it might not come back to full production. You think it will come back? Has it helped you to drink oatmeal as some friends have suggested?
