Writing over a topless picture she took with her baby, she captioned: ‘Yesterday was one of our hardest days. I was aware certain foods could mess with my babies tummy, but never worried too much.
‘I had vegan food for lunch- beans, cauliflower, etc. I’m sure you’re all thinking “you’re an idiot, those foods give grown people gasses.”‘
‘Ocean screamed, cried and fussed, from morning until night. I clued in after my second feed, & switched from the boob to a bottle with saved milk.
‘I sobbed when it was time for bed- yes I was exhausted, but mostly because when she finally started feeling better around 10pm, I felt so terrible that I did that to my sweet girl,’ she went on, conveying her guilt over making her daughter feel bad.’

Certain foods and drinks ‘could cause your baby to become irritable or have an allergic reaction,’ according to the Mayo Clinic.
‘If you suspect that something in your diet might be affecting your baby, avoid the food or drink for up to a week to see if it makes a difference in your baby’s behavior,’ said the medical professionals.

‘So many people asked me if I was going to breastfeed. I thought this was a strange question because it’s not that simple. I know many women who struggled- whether the baby didn’t latch, milk wasn’t coming in, or it just wasn’t for them,’ the Give Them Lala author shared in a post early this month discussing her breastfeeding journey.
‘I was never married to the idea of breastfeeding because I didn’t want to feel disappointment or shame.
