About how fast will food a breast feeding mother eats effect her breast milk?

• Thanks, Some people have said longer but I think it all depends on the person as the ones that said longer also said that sometimes its also as fast as 1 hour. Also heard that if your breast is empty, like if you feed the baby and your ducts are empty the food you eat right afterwards will end up in the milk quicker.

• Yeah, it's possible. I know that an hour after eating if I pump my milk smells like the food I ate, so I only assume it tastes like that too, it might be quicker, but I've never tasted or smelled it quicker. (well, I've never tasted it but you know...)

• Thanks. This is helpful. Also did you by any chance notice it getting to your baby faster if you ate a specific food right afte your done feeding?

• When I would eat cauliflower or broccoli a couple of hours later she would be very fussy because her tummy was hurting. There are other foods but those were the most noticeable along with chocolate.

• Chocolate will often give a baby colic.
