PLS HELP! Breastfeeding, no hindmilk, allergies ? I give up

Question

There’s milk and poop pics I’m so sorry!! 
So this may be long I’m sorry in advance. Also YES I have gone to two doctors and they don’t care. They said as long as he’s gaining weight they’re happy. But my son is in pain every day. It started off with us thinking he was colic but we quickly realized that wasn’t the case. He started pooping mucus. My toddler has a milk allergy so I cut out all dairy and thought it’d get better but it got worse. So the doctor said to cut out soy. I did but it stilll got worse. Then I did some research on lactose overload and he fit every single symptom to a t. I have a very harsh letdown and an oversupply. I can get 3-5 ounces during one letdown and I have multiple letdowns. So I started block deeding to lower my supply. My supply has been pretty good, my breasts aren’t engorged so he’s eating longer and not as fussy at the breast. So I thought he has to be getting enough hindmilk now. Well his poop is completely slime. And now it’s green as well. He poops a lot too. He has so much gas. The past week or two he’s also started to puke so much. I’m super worried. He can’t sleep because something Is hurting him. So I decided to pump to see if I have any hindmilk. I got this. Absolutely no fat in 3 ounces. 3 ounces should be all he can even eat before he’s full. I did it again the next day to make sure, this time I pumped 5 ounces and still no freaking fat. I’m thinking this is the problem. He’s getting no hindmilk at all and I don’t know why I’m not producing any?? I’m so confused and just feel like I’m failing him. I’ve also noticed he has a bad lip tie so he can’t latch too deeply. But even if he could I’m not getting hindmilk.

This is his poop. Sorry it’s gross!!! He hasn’t had any blood and this is why I feel it isn’t an allergy. The first pic is this mornings poop. The last pic is when I first noticed it was bad.

Does anyone have any idea?? I need help and the doctors won’t help. They’re the only ones around here, I live in a small northern town. So I can’t change doctors. I just want to know what’s going on. I want to help him.

Answer

I've heard there are places that can do a milk analysis at a lab to check this. Maybe phone up a lactation consultant to ask or Google if there is something like this not too far? I had similar issues and ended up switching to exclusive pumping for 3 months since she would only get the foremilk with my letdown and then she would stop drinking. I would pump for like 20 to 30 mins to get the hindmilk.. After 3 months I was exhausted and we switched to formula at 9 months and her poops are normal now.

Answer

Sounds like a sensitive tummy. You might have to change your diet to dairy free or gluten free. See what babes sensitive to. 
I agree with the other poster - the milk takes time to separate. I don’t think it has much to do with a dirty diaper or grumbly tummy.

Answer

For how long have you cut out dairy?? It can take 14+ days to leave your system and only then you might start to see an improvement in baby. 
And you can't really see the nutrients/fat in your milk just from pumping. My milk takes ages to separate. And no you don't need it to be like 50% fat layer on top to be nutritional enough.

Answer

You usually can’t tell if there’s fat in your milk unless it’s had time to separate. The lip tie could also be a big factor for why he is gassy. I would take him to his pediatrician and try and find out what he could be allergic to. If they don’t take you seriously then find a new pediatrician. You could also try bottles if you pump. They make some bottles that are anti colic and can help with the gas. It just sounds like he has a super sensitive tummy.
