In April of 2022, I had my first son by unplanned and unwanted cesarean. As a result of the antibiotics and medication at birth, my son had symptoms. I knew there was something I needed to change to help him — but actually doing it was another thing altogether.
After 3 months of constant spitting up, rashes and digestive issues– I said enough was enough. I decided to change my diet, and his symptoms subsided by 80%. It was SUCH a relief.
And I started to feel way better too. Now I'm 4.5 years out from my birth, I had a second baby (successful VBAC!), and the foods I ate to heal my son's gut while breastfeeding have become my north star for nutrition for the whole family!
I eat like this through pregnancy and postpartum because:
- No bloating
- No inflammation
- Easy Weight Loss
- Strong Cravings disappeared
- Resolved my postpartum anxiety
And BEST OF ALL!
- Baby's symptoms (rashes, constipation, spitting up) went away!
- As a secondary benefit: his sleep even improved (I believe because he was more satiated by my milk)
And since then, I've helped hundreds (probably thousands) of mothers do the same thing.
