Symptoms of lactose overload

• Frequent watery bowel motions (can often be green in colour but not always)
• Bowel motions often have a slightly to very offensive odour
• Bowel motions could be frothy or 'explosive' (shoot out with force)
• Bloating
• Cramps
• Excessive gas
• Irritability/screaming
• Sleeplessness or wakefulness
• Baby appears to be constantly hungry
• Baby gains large amounts of weight (which is not the case when a baby is lactose intolerant)
• Baby is usually less than 3 months old, but this problem can continue to the age of 5 months
