An elimination diet can quietly deplete your nutrient stores, and that can affect both your own health and the nutrition your baby gets through your milk.

Some gaps show up in you first, like calcium, which your body pulls from your own bones to keep your milk steady. Others, like DHA, follow what you eat straight into your breastmilk.

These are the nutrients I look at first:
🥛 Dairy-free: calcium, for your bones
🥚 Egg-free: choline, for your brain and your baby’s brain development
🐟 Fish-free: DHA and EPA (omega-3 fats), for your baby’s brain, skin and gut, and your own clear thinking
🍽️ On a total elimination diet: a quality multivitamin, a mixed prebiotic and regular blood tests

Comment STACK and I’ll send you my one-page guide with the daily targets, food sources to try and what to look for when you choose a supplement.

Talk to your doctor or practitioner before starting a supplement, especially if you take medication.

Hi 👋 I’m Laila, a baby naturopath and mum of 2. If you’ve been told to “wait and see” but your gut tells you something deeper is going on, you’re in the right place.

My team and I work with babies and toddlers aged 0 to 4 who react to foods, through breastmilk or on their plate. That might look like eczema, FPIES, food allergies and intolerances, gut troubles or sleep that won’t settle. We also support mums through pregnancy and postpartum, so you have the energy to care for your little ones.

In six years we’ve helped over 1,000 families in Australia and around the world look for the root cause of their symptoms instead of waiting it out.

I’m on a mission to help you heal your baby’s gut and reintroduce foods, so you can stop guessing and go beyond elimination diets.
Follow along for tips on baby gut health, starting solids, allergen introduction and food allergies.

People often get upset when I say Panadol (paracetamol) and Nurofen (ibuprofen) aren't necessary for every fever. I understand why. When your little one is hot and grizzly at 2am, reaching for the bottle feels like the caring thing to do, and it's probably what your own mum did too.

I'm not against these medicines. They have a real place when a child is miserable or in pain, and they can be a great tool to help everyone in the family catch up on some sleep. What I question is treating the number on the thermometer instead of the child in front of you. Australia's leading children's hospital says the same, and the research behind it is more interesting than most of us were ever told.

Clients often tell us “Oh, they started daycare and since then we’ve just had back-to-back illnesses.”

Some people are told there isn’t much you can do other than hope that it passes.

But after the initial few weeks of starting daycare your baby or toddler should be able to reach a point where they can fight off infection without getting sick over and over again.

This is only possible if your baby or toddler have adequate nutrition. Nutritional gaps in iron, zinc and vitamin D can lead to more recurrent infections, which consequently leads to further nutritional deficiencies.

I recently worked with a baby boy in clinic who cried and grizzled through most of the day, and his parents couldn’t work out why.

They’d already checked with their doctor and ruled out anything serious. So they were left wondering: is he just a sensitive little boy, or is his tummy making him uncomfortable?

We looked a little deeper. His bloods showed very low vitamin D, low iron and B12 that wasn’t where we’d like it. All three matter for his brain and nervous system. Within a few weeks of nutritional support, he was more settled day by day. He was still constipated, so we adjusted his gut support based on his symptoms, and soon he was pooing every day.

For him, it took about two months. Some babies take longer. Now his parents have a happy little boy who sleeps, poos daily and plays with his big brothers.

Some babies cry a lot because that’s who they are. Others are low in nutrients and dealing with an unhappy gut.
