A member asked:

Our breast-fed 1 month old appears to be in so much pain ... can what mom eats affect him so negatively?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Breastfeeding should never cause infant pain, no matter what mom eats. Possible bf complications may cause eczema if mom eating allergen like dairy. Also cruciferous vegetables like cabbage can change milk flavor affecting desire to eat. See your doc asap for true pain.
