Has pregnancy made me lactose intolerant?

    I noticed around 10 weeks probably that I was sick quite frequently. I know, could just be pregnancy.... Then around 12 weeks I noticed I got horrible stomach cramps for hours after drinking milk or eating ice cream. Cramping eventually went away. TMI, It felt like I would have to go to the bathroom, but never had to go. I have since stopped drinking milk (about 4 days) and have not had any more stomach cramping. Is this just a coincidence?

    It made me lactose intolerant. I would vomit everytime I tried to drink it or eat ice cream. Thank goodness you can get lactose free ice cream and good tasting soy milk and calcium enhanced orange juice (which is what I lived on during pregnancy). A few weeks after I had my girls, I was fine.

    Same thing happened to me. Lactaid is a lifesaver if you cant give up your dairy.
