Many mothers commented on a post about breastfeeding difficulties, offering possible reasons such as teething, growth spurts or dietary issues, and shared solutions. Several mentioned creating a calm nursing environment, while others suggested cold treats to soothe gum pain. There was agreement that certain foods in the mother's diet can irritate a baby's sensitive stomach, with caffeine, spices and greasy food common culprits. The discussion also turned to the idea of creating an app to track feeding patterns, fussiness, and dietary habits, which could provide personalised tips and connect parents in a supportive community. This app would be an invaluable resource for new parents navigating breastfeeding challenges.
I'm at my wit's end with my little one and his feeding fuss! He used to breastfeed without a problem, but suddenly he's fussy and unlatched constantly - I'm wondering if it's because of my diet? Or is it teeth? Has anyone else experienced this and what helped you? Need some ideas before I go crazy!
