Is it safe to have a glass of lime juice everyday while breast feeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Really: Citrus fruits are acidic and may irritate a baby’s immature digestive system. Fruits to avoid include all oranges, lemons, grapefruits and limes.Some babies may experience fussiness and spitting up if mom eats citrus. Babies who are sensitive to citrus in breast milk may develop diaper rash, as they have sensitive skin that is easily irritated by the acidic nature of these fruits.
