    Question Lactose Intolerance

    Strangest thing...
    So I had been lactose intolerant since my early teens. When I was pregnant with DD, it magically went away. I could drink gallons and gallons of milk with no adverse effects. I could continue consuming dairy after her birth and up until recently. Today, as I was drinking my 2nd big glass of milk, I got that oh-too-familiar stomach cramping. I guess my lactose intolerance is back.
    The strangest thing is...I had no changes with my 1st pregnancy (m/c at 8w), it went away with 2nd pregnancy (DD), no changes with 3rd pregnancy (m/c at 10w), and now it's changed with this pregnancy. Maybe this is the sign I've been looking for?
    Oh here I am, crying about this now.

    Sounds promising! I was lactose intolerant for the first trimester+ of this pregnancy, so those hormones can definitely change things. Guess they are strong enough this time for you and hopefully that can ease some worry.

    I would not push your system. If you know you are intollerant-stay away from it. With both my kids, (I breastfeed), if I ate "any" dairy they would break out in a rash...

    Sounds like a good sign for sure! Maybe it is the hormones. I know that I can eat things in PG that I wouldn't normally and I have aversions to all sorts of things that I can eat when not PG, so who knows?
