I went through a similar issue, but figured out quite quickly that it was onions and garlic that were causing the issues. I also utilized my chiropractor. On top of the allergies, she was having reflux due to a pinched nerve in her back. After several chiro appts and my diet change I had a much happier child. I had never heard of the Pancrease, but will remember that for my next child. Glad to know I was not alone!

Hi……My daughter is going thru a similiar scenario with her 21 month old. I will mention the enzymes to her, as she is still restricting her own diet quite a bit. Baby is allergic to most everything!
I am wondering if your daughter has outgrown her allergies/sensitivities…..
So glad you persevered with the nursing !!!!

I’m so glad you wrote this. I had no idea that a digestive enzyme could help and had I not read the word “pancrease” I wouldn’t have stopped when I passed a bottle of pancreatin at our local mothers store today. I’m praying between them I can eat more than lamb and squash.

Wow, Rachel. I really admire your tenacity to continue breastfeeding through such a challenge. Thanks for sharing your experience, especially the information about enzymes in the mother’s diet affecting the baby’s sensitivity.
