Has anyone developed an intolerance to milk whilst preggers?

Yep I did, with ds1- who is intol himself. Ds3 is also (not ds2 though). I still am as well, more's the pity, but on the other hand you get used to it and it just becomes normal.

So did I and as PeachyBobbingParty DS1 and DD2 have dairy sensitivity/intolerance but DD1 doesn't. The first and third pregnancies were very similar and second one totally different. Good luck!

Me too! Developed bad intolerance to milk and eggs. Have been off both since Nov last year. DD was born June and stayed off while B/f but was too knackered to carry on with it on poor diet. Had to take calcium suppliments. MAde my IBS falre up bad style. HAd to finish work early as was so ill. On the plus side have re-introduced egg just this week and had no ill effects so far. Waiting to try milk. DD seems to be lactose intolerant and is on LF SMA now and doing fine tho ordinary formula gave her colic. I'm a bit more cautious about reintroducing milk. Hope you do ok. I'm not sure if it's automatic that LO will have intolerances but is worth being cautious.

Some helpful things for you: Lactofree milk is great (much nicer than soya and you can have it in coffee etc) Available from Tesco and morrisons.

Also alpro do a UHT cream that works well in cooking. Good luck with the diet and beware of tinned soups etc. It;s amazing what milk gets into!
