So far I'm avoiding cauliflower and broccoli. Not sure if artichokes caused a bad night with ds last night. I haven't been eating dairy...

Other than limiting caffeine to one cup of coffee a day, I don't avoid anything. Sometimes we have a bad night, but I eat the same things all the time so I don't ever think it's related to what I ate.

Re: bfing moms- what foods do you aviod?

I didnt avoid anything until I needed to. Most women do not need to.
Both my girls screamed ALL the time. In the end I cut out all dairy and sadly all veggies (yes I said all) for months. The dairy made a difference. Then I cut out the obvious veggies. As a last resort after a GI dr was pushing formula (he literally put it in the stroller) my LC had me cut out all the veggies. I had 2 new babies. They were so much happier. I slowly re-introduced vegetables back into my diet. They are still getting BM and I can eat whatever I want now. The girls digestive systems were too underdeveloped at the time from being born so early.

You really shouldn't cut out anything besides the obvious things (excess caffeine, alcohol, etc.) unless you notice a problem. You def. should not avoid dairy unless baby has an allergy/sensitivity.

In the beginning I went on a ridiculous total elimination diet because DS had a extremely hard time with gas. I only ate turkey, potatoes, oatmeal, grapes and one other thing ( it escapes my mind). After 6 weeks of this crazy diet, I introduced foods back slowly. By 3 months, i was eating everything and didnt avoid anything.

The only thing that helped with his gas was time.

Nothing, I just try to not drink more than 1 cup of coffee and no alcohol, not that I ever drink.
There we few times DS's tummy was upset and I tried figuring out what was doing it, but I couldn't so I continued eating as usual and he was fine.
I did the same with DD.

I avoid anything with gluten (wheat and white flour) and limit dairy. I do not limit veggies.

I only started out limiting my caffeine, but when it became obvious that my love of hot sauce & spicy things was affecting the little guy, I cut out spicy foods. That's it though...

DS is 20 months and I have luckily never had to avoid anything.
