Anyone have dairy sensitivity? maybe TMI

[leancuisine]

The past two weekends, randomly in the middle of the day I would start feeling sick. Not extremely sick, but I would get a headache and feel uneasy. I would end up throwing up and feeling better. This doesn't happen at all during the week. The other night, H and I went out for ice cream cones. Not much later, I ended up feeling sick again and puked up the ice cream. I don't remember what I ate for lunch that day but I had a burger for dinner and was fine.

I am beginning to wonder if I am developing a sensitivity to dairy. I eat cereal for breakfast on the weekends but not during the week... which may explain the weekend vomiting. The ice cream thing is was really made me think it was dairy related.

I am not having any other issues (like diarrhea). For those of you that have problems with dairy, does this sound normal?

Oh, and I have already POAS because the pregnancy freak out happened first. Not preggo.

Try cutting out dairy for a few weeks and see what happens.

Perhaps. Food intolerances can be very different for every person. I have sort of a dairy "threshold." I can cook my veggies in butter, but eating cheese makes me gassy and then leads to the runs. The only way to really know is to remove it for 30 days and reintroduce.

I do. I find that lactaid pills help.

When I eat dairy, my stomach gets all gurgly and rumbly. Thankfully that is ALL that happens, but it's annoying nonetheless.

Try cutting it out completely for a couple of weeks and then slowly introducing it back in and see if that is the culprit.

When I have dairy without a Lactaid, I get the gurgly stomach, a general nausea/uncomfortable feeling, a really bad/sour taste in my mouth, and then I get gassy and if its really bad, I get the runs. I have never barfed from dairy issues but a friend of mine from college said that she had before so it doesn't sound outside the realm of possibility.

I develop a dairy sensitivity after I give birth. It's the weirdest thing. If history repeats itself, I'll be able to eat it again in about a year.

Cut it out and see how you feel.
