Almost 6 weeks (3)

New text.... Baby woke up, continuing now. The semi elimination seemed to help some, but then not sticking to it, I noticed a big relapse in her symptoms. So the last few days I have been vigilant about no dairy or soy at all... VERY hard to do!

But my new theory now is it is possibly a foremilk/hindmilk imbalance because I was wearing the shells & constantly leaking all day. Especially since her symptoms have seemed to return depite the elimination, and I was eating more simple sugars to compensate for calories. Thus the supply of the sugary milk and not fat. I am so grateful for the oversupply, because some can't even build up if they wanted and I should be able to lower my supply w/ block feeding. I just hate to see her uncomfortable. And to think I am causing it! I hope that is what it is and not an intolerance. So much easier to deal with I hope. But I am still staying dairy free for now, just trying to eat more protien and fats.
