Relief For Nursing Moms on Allergy Restriction Diets - Ditch Bland Fare For Tasty Food and Recipes

It's not easy being a mom, especially one with a newborn who has an allergy to--or is suspected of having an allergy to--something in your diet that ends up in your breastmilk. Signs that your baby may exhibit consist of fussiness, crankiness, vomiting, diarrhea, blood in the baby's stool, and/or a skin rash. Rather than give up the vital act of breastfeeding, many mothers submit to a diet that can be bland, boring, and limited, in hopes of identifying the offending food that has been "tainting" their breastmilk for their sensitive babies.

The most coarse culprit is cow's milk proteins. Other offenders might be eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, and tree nuts. How do you pinpoint the allergen? Doctors commonly advise removing them all from the mother's diet, then introducing them gradually, one by one, while observing the baby's reaction. Sounds uncomplicated enough--until you try to go grocery shopping, make a meal, or go out to eat. Suddenly, you comprehend roughly everything has soy, dairy, and wheat. What are you supposed to live on? Plain meat, plain vegetables, plain fruit? Did I mention plain? No more pizza, lasagna, ice cream, cake, cookies . . .

To make matters worse, it seems no one else is going through the same thing. At least when you're on a diet to lose weight, you can cheat! In this case, however, if you cheat, you feel guilt that you're harming your baby. And since no one else is experiencing this, you feel no one truly understands just how difficult it is. Before you know it, you're spending time dreaming of ice-cream sundaes and fantasizing about dining at every bistro in a ten mile radius, imagining you can literally order something besides a plain salad with no dressing.




Take a deep breath. Relief is near. Also, you deserve encouragement for the noble thing you are doing for your baby's sake, so that he or she can continue to enjoy the vital benefits of your breastmilk. This restriction diet won't last forever, yet that is dinky consolation when it feels like forever.

Instead of focusing on food that are forbidden, the key is to find relief with delicious foods and recipes you can enjoy guilt-free to your heart's content. You may need to buy a few new ingredients, but you can once again indulge in some very tasty foods and still follow your restriction diet. The below food suggestions and recipes are allergen-free. To clarify, they are dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, soy-free, and wheat-free. Enjoy!

First, visit your local natural foods store, or find one online-it will come to be your new favorite store. These days, your local supermarket may even be well-stocked with these food items:

Cereals*
Salsa*
Guacamole*
Tortilla chips*
Barbecue Sauce*
Oat flour
Rice flour
Barley flour
Rice milk*
Coconut milk
Wheat-free pasta, such as rice pasta or corn pasta
Wheat-free Vanilla
Egg replacer (a powdery substance such as Ener-G Egg Replacer, and not to be confused with Egg Beaters)
Coconut oil
Vegan chocolate chips
Rice Dream* (it's like ice cream!)
Coconut milk "ice cream"
Coconut milk "yogurt"
Rice "cheese"

* Please note: You still must check the ingredient labels, as some varieties of these items do have soy, etc. With a dinky persistence, you should be able to find ones that don't.

With a dinky practice, you'll find it's not too difficult to adapt some of your regular recipes to adapt your restrictions. For instance, use rice milk or coconut milk in place of cow's milk. Use a blend of rice and oat flour for wheat or white flour. Canola oil or coconut oil works well in some recipes in place of butter or margarine (which does consist of dairy and soy). The egg replacer speaks for itself.
