My baby is 19weeks and I am breastfeeding though he has occasionally had formula. He's doing really well but I've been quite under the weather, grumbling upset stomach that won't settle. I know that wheat has been a problem in the past and the doctor has now said to avoid dairy until I'm better. I am feeling generally rubbish which I think is because I'm not eating enough - I'm really struggling to find bland high calorie foods which don't contain wheat or dairy.
Any suggestions or anyone been in a similar situation? I'm wondering whether it might be better to stop breastfeeding to give myself a chance to recover as I'm sure it's putting an extra strain on me that I don't need. But the baby does tend to be much sickier on formula.
