[quote=Anonymous]Ebf for 11 months now (Obviously we started supplementing  solids around 9 months). I craved so much dairy fat when I started bf I can't imagine going without it.  I eat a lot of whole Greek yogurt, whole milk, Irish butter, & eggs.

If you can't have any of those I would add in a lot of almond butter/peanut butter, almonds, almond milk or some other dairy milk substitute that has high fat. If cow milk is the problem can you have goat cheese?

I usually have egg rich pancakes for breakfast with Greek yogurt on top.  If I have oatmeal I supplement it with milk and have apples with almond butter for a snack before lunch.   For lunch I often have scrambled eggs, for dinner I often have white pizza.  I also usually eat brownies for dessert.  As you can see I crave so much dairy!  More so than meat, really, but when they checked ds's iron at 9 mos it was fine (didn't require supplement as is common in ebf.)

I agree with the pp's that pumping isn't helping unless you  are trying to build up a stash.

I also tend to crave rich, yeasty doughs (like pizza dough.).  But in general I don't eat too many bread carbs and prefer rice as a carb.  Also I like to eat salmon for dinner a few times a week.  Hope this helps, good luck.[/quote]
