A member asked:
Is my baby gassy because i am drinking too much milk?

No: There are many foods that are traditionally considered "gassy" during breastfeeding but milk and dairy are not often included in that list. A good way to see what may be having an affect on your baby is to make a food and gas diary and see which day and times your baby is gassy. Foods consumed in the hours before a feed are the most likely culprits.

Yes: It is possible. Try reducing your milk intake but make sure you get enough calcium and vitamin d. Give it a week or so and see if it helps.
