Milk free diet while breastfeeding?
My 3 month old son has been diagnosed with a milk protein allergy. I am breastfeeding, so I now have to maintain a milk free diet. I have found all kinds of info on foods I CAN’T eat, but no list of foods I CAN eat. I know I can have fruits,vegies and meat but I was just wondering what else I can have. Anyone dealing with this and discovering foods they can eat. What do you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner? If you get fast food, what do you get and where do you go? Please help!
I’m with ya! My daughter was diagnosed with the same thing (right around 3 months too.) She is now 9 months old and I am getting sick and tired of the dairy-free diet. However, it has helped me lose a ton of weight! Anyway, at first I was so depressed because I love cereal, ice cream, and yes, even McDonalds! I learned to focus on what I could have and not what I couldn’t have. I found some snacks to still have like pretzels (both hard and soft), vienna fingers (these make a great treat when you need something sweet). Also, Pillsbury brownies do not have milk in them so they’re great when you’re craving chocolate. For breakfast I eat eggs, cream of wheat, oatmeal, or cereal. Lunch usually consists of sandwiches, soups, fruits, and veggies. Dinner is basically anything minus the cream of mushroom soups and cheese. I’ve learned that soy milk is a great alternative to milk (be sure to get the vanilla flavored kind). Also you still can eat out – just go on-line to check resturant menus before you go. If you would like to e-mail me we could talk more about this! caseadribrown@aol.com
