Anyone else find drinking milk gives them diarrhoea since becoming pregnant?!

Question

I’m fine with it on cereal etc. 
Just drinking it from a glass gives me bloat, horrendous tummy pains which lead to having to run to the toilet!!
May I add I am normally always constipated and this is drinking red skimmed milk, not even full fat!

Answer

stop all dairy intake
you are describing lactose intolerance

Answer

Time to change to almond milk

Answer

I was lactose intolerant for most of my first pregnancy. Switched to lactaid milk or ice cream if I was craving dairy.

Answer

I’ve become obsessed with cow milk since pregnancy, but I don’t have any digestive upset. Avoid foods that make you sick. Not sure if you can take lactose tablets during pregnancy.

Answer

I’ve had this issue this time around. But it’s just milk! I can still eat cheese, yogurt etc. but milk, even in cereal would make me nauseous and have diarrhea. So now if I want to drink milk or eat cereal I use almond milk, don’t even notice a taste difference but it’s nice not having to run to the bathroom.

Answer

One of my pregnant friends had this only while pregnant with her daughter. When her daughter was born they found out the baby had lactose intolerance.She had to wait until she was done breast feeding to start eating dairy products again. Her daughter is still lactose intolerant but she isnt. Very wierd but i thought it was worth mentioning.
