dairy making me even more sick

by danigurl1984, May 19, 2009 04:45PM
any ideas ladies?
well i am 10w prego the morning sickness is finally letting up but, with this being my 5th pregnancy and 3 living little ones i dont know whats going on, i am not lactose and tolerant but i cant do milk, chease, and yougurt ect it makes me extreamly ill the rest of the day even if i have chease on a burger.  i had a RH check done but no word from the dr about any of my blood work so i assume everything is fine, i have to wait till the 29th to see the results so i am looking forward to that. but i just dont know what it can be, ive heard everything from blood types being off, to maybe baby is lactose and tolerant to it is just a phase in the 1st trimester. has anyone had this problem yet and the dr gave you an idea whats going on? any one have and ideas to shoot at me? and yes if i drink SILK ( soy milk ) i am fine. can a pregnancy make you lactose sensitive? this is frusterating cause i love my yougurt and cottage chease and ice cream :( help help helo, thanks you all

I have not ever had this problem. But I know pregnanacy can do some CRAZY :) things and all of them are differant. I am going to say that the baby might be lactose tolerant. Which real stinks I know I love my dairy too, so it would be hard. I know foods that I love to eat before I cant touch now because it makes me sick like Mexican.
But you never know you may be able to eat and drink drairy in the 2nd trimester.
Maybe your doc will know more for you on your next visit.
Good Luck! Let me know what he says.

Hey.
Every pregnancy is different when it comes to symptoms, and lactose intolerance is just one of the symptoms that can change from pregnancy to pregnancy.  Last pregnancy I couldn't eat meat, this one I can't drink juice.  Your body reacts differently each time (which is odd) but it's common for pregnancy hormones to cause an intolerance to lactose.  Ask your Dr. if you can take acidophilis (sp?) pills, I had a friend who got so ill every time he ate dairy, but the acidophilis helps the body break down the lactose, so he would take one a few hours before he ate dairy.

thank you for your responce's yeah this one is new too me and i know some pregnancy are diffrent from the other, mikaleen thats a great idea though ill talk to the dr, pending my RH screeen, i hope it is something easy to fix and not a whole pregnancy thing this would  make it miserable, ill keep people up too date on this one, it is crazyness or it could just be a first trimester thing who knows. my apt is next friday so i hope to have some answers then, thank you both again and have a wonderful week.

I am having the opposite effect with dairy with my pregnancy.  Before getting pregnant, I was beginning to develop lactose intolerance, I think, because if I had cereal or milk, especially first thing in the morning, it would give me a tummy ache, but since being pregnant, milk doesn't bother me at all!  Isn't that crazy?  However, I don't like eating many vegetables anymore - so that isn't good.
