I didn't realize that about red wine. I tend to drink wine in such small amounts that I didn' t think much of it... it should read "eat fancy cheese with a half glass of red wine or the stick variety in the middle of the night (which I did a ton!)". Is beer cheese fondue ok for nursing moms? I can get behind that too. Thanks Dr. D. I didn’t realize that about red wine.

Tue, 14 Mar 2006 19:30:12 +0000 http://www.rookiemoms.com/?p=176#comment-157 These are good ways to get calcium. However, as a pediatrician I am concerned about your suggestion of eating cheese with red wine. Remember, when you are nursing, your baby eats what you eat. Ethanol (the alcohol molecule in red wine) is one of the smallest molecules in existence and can easily pass into your breastmilk. If you don't want to get baby drunk, I'd watch that if I were you. Your list tells me you are aware of the risks of taking in certain compounds why you're pregnant; why else would you drink a decaf latte? Please consider what you're exposing your child to in your breastmilk. On the other hand, good for your for nursing. As a pediatrician I can't tell you how less frequently I see breastfed babies in comparison with bottlefed babies. Dr. D. These are good ways to get calcium.

If we could only eat those things and not gain a pound that would be great! I Added a link to your blog on my blog page because I love your site. If you would like for me to take it off, please let me know. :) Those are good ways to get calcium, I would say! If we could only eat those things and not gain a pound that would be great!

Great tasting milk or dark chocolate---but 500mg Calcium, 100IU of Vitamin D (and you need your D to absorb the calcium) and vitamin K. All natural. Not quite a decadent as your proposal but perhaps a really good (and lower calorie) middle ground. www.adoracalcium.com for free sample.
