Dasiy,
I will just jump in here and say this, if it is okay, I hope. The doctors all told me my son had colic but something in my mothering instinct told me it was something else. He would only get like this 20 min. after eating being breastfed.
I started to adapt my diet and I noticed it helped almost right away. I then when to an allergist who helped me eliminate all the trouble foods. It turns out that my son was really allergic to almost all foods, even the special formula for this problem.
This was before the internet, so I did some calling around and got hold of the Mayo Clinic and it turns out they were doing a study on this same thing, breastfed babies allergic to the foods the mother ate. I guess this is getting too long, but I just had to mention that sometimes the doctors are just wrong.
