BTDT BF'ing Moms...a question about gassy foods.

I had artichokes with chicken piccata the other night and Grace was up from 11PM-3:30 with gas. Now I know....NO MORE ARTICHOKES!

Are there any other "gassy" foods that I should be avoiding? I heard to avoid broccoli, but what else is there? TIA

Onions!!! I think cooked are ok but stay clear of raw.

But every baby is different. I stayed away from broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, onions, garlic etc for a long time but I just coudn't take it anymore. So I slowly tried them and she hasn't had any problems. I have my pasta with tomato sauce all the time now

the only thing i have been avoiding is dairy. since i cut it out, DS has been much less gassy. he still has gas, but i haven't figured out what it might be from. i figure that all babies are going to have some gas anyway.

My food choices did not effect Molly really but some people say that peas are really bad, cauliflower, broc is all very gassy.

So far the only thing that bothers DD is tomato sauce & chocolate, knock on wood everything else i eat is ok. I have heard though that brocolli, cauliflower, beans, e the onions are the gassy ones

From what I was told only a small trace of our food gets in our breast milk. I drive myself nuts when DD has gas thinking what did I eat that day that may have caused it

I made Pasts Fagiolo last Sunday and she was gassy As was I

Thanks Ladies! I will introduce these foods in small quantities to my DD and she how she digests them.
