I can drink 2% milk without problems but I still must eat fat free yogurt. SIGH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-137816 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:50:13 +0000 cupcakemama 137816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gosh lots of lactose intolerant people! I love milk and dairy and guzzle it down. So far LO seems fine with dairy as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-137815 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:50:08 +0000 mrs. wagon 137815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone in my family has a mild lactose intolerance. Rob Sr. has a little as well. I've heard that adults aren't supposed to drink milk anyway (like how adult cats don't actually drink milk). But who knows. </p> <p>Wagon Jr. is still fine with cow's milk. He drinks 2% right now. We drink Lactaid or the store brand lactose reduced milk. It's actually really yummy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-137810 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:47:34 +0000 chopsuey 137810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I would be so sad if I was! LO isn't either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-137799 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:42:40 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 137799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am lactose intolerant. I've been that way since birth, but it got really bad about 7 years ago. But for some reason during pregnancy, it gets better and I can eat cheese and ice cream! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135505 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:59:52 +0000 lavender 135505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a mild intolerance, but will eat a tub of ice cream to my face...usually I pay for it but its a weakness of mine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135498 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:57:21 +0000 heffalump 135498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is. Luckly LO isn't showing any signs of it though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135428 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:23:07 +0000 calsmom 135428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never had cow's milk before. My parents assumed I was lactose intolerant because my siblings were. I can have dairy, just in small doses. If I have too much, it's not pretty so I guess I am a little lactose intolerant lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135423 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:21:10 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 135423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a mild intolerance, but can eat cheese/yogurt, just not straight-up milk. LO I'm not sure yet but seems to be ok with dairy so far, although he hasn't had cow's milk yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135412 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 13:16:48 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 135412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband has a mild intolerance. He can eat dairy products but he can't drink regular milk. I buy him almond milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135331 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 12:28:30 +0000 regberadaisy 135331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not but my husband is so I wonder about our LO.<br /> My brother is but my niece isn't! The weird thing is he was ALWAYS lactose intolerant but in recent years he can now have milk, ice cream etc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135323 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 12:24:20 +0000 banana 135323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I'm lactose intolerant but my hubs isn't. My son isn't either, as far as we can tell. I wonder when babies develop lactose intolerance? From birth? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135067 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 09:48:18 +0000 Maysprout 135067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but for some reason I can only drink fat free milk. I get a huge tummy ache from the milk fat. But I can drink as much of fat free as I want. I think it's animal fat in general that bothers my tummy. LO doesn't seem to have an intolerance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-135062 Tue, 24 Apr 2012 09:44:50 +0000 Alivoo01 135062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm similar to you. I'm not lactose intolerant, but if I don't drink/eat dairy for awhile and consume it later, there's some disturbances in the belly. However, it goes away later on with more consumption. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-134762 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 23:14:05 +0000 BoogieBea 134762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was more intolerant when I was younger. Milk would give me really bad stomach pains. My mom never believed me and made me drink a glass of milk every morning before school. I don't drink a lot of milk as an adult but the times I do, it doesn't bother me as it used to. LO doesn't have any intolerance it seems. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-134739 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 22:31:37 +0000 Red 134739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I became mildly lactose intolerant in my 20's and my LO is allergic to all dairy. According to what I've researched, she got it from me - repeated antibiotic use in my 20's destroyed the good bacteria in my gut and that unhealthy gut flora was passed on to my LO :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-134731 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 22:16:33 +0000 sandy 134731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm mildly lactose intolerant...I can eat yogurt, cheese and ice cream but cannot drink milk or soft serve without suffering. LO is still exclusively breastfed but I am going to have to watch her bc I think she has weird poo when I eat dairy but I can't really tell bc I have been avoiding dairy since her weird poo...too afraid to test it out bc I will feel bad for her if she has a bad poo bc of what I ate </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-lactose-intolerant-is-your-lo#post-134709 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 21:39:19 +0000 Mrs. Bee 134709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a mild lactose intolerance. If I don't drink milk for a while and then have a glass, I am asking for some trouble! But if I drink it every day I seem to be ok with it. I ate some yogurt today after not having dairy for a while, and there is a rumble in the bronx right now!</p> <p>I think Charlie did have a mild lactose intolerance as well because his vomiting greatly reduced since we switched him to soy. I'm wondering if Olive will have be lactose intolerant too!</p> <p>Are you lactose intolerant? Is your LO? </p>
