I usually can't eat dairy or certain spices, they upset my stomach a lot. But ever since I got pregnant, I feel like I'm tolerating them better. Is it possible for food intolerances to improve or even go away when you're expecting?
Yes, immune suppression during pregnancy can absolutely pause your food sensitivities. But honestly, don't take it as a permanent cure. Once your postpartum hormones settle, your old intolerances will likely return.
I used to get horrible bloating from gluten, but now in my 35th week, I am literally inhaling parathas with zero issues! I am just enjoying this magical superpower before this baby comes out and my gut goes back to being angry.
It really can. My lactose intolerance disappeared completely while I was pregnant and even lasted through the early months of breastfeeding, which was such a relief. Just listen to your body and introduce those foods very gently.
Yes, it actually can happen because your body suppresses its immunity to keep the baby safe [3.1.1], which can temporarily reduce your reactions to certain foods. But suno, don't start eating everything suddenly; go very slow and check how your body responds.
It can definitely happen temporarily. I was able to tolerate dairy easily during my pregnancy, but after my C-section, I went back to my normal diet carefully because my body was already dealing with surgical healing and I didn't want any extra gas.
Mine completely vanished! I drank glasses of milk with no lactose issues, which felt like a dream. But sadly, within two weeks of giving birth and losing sleep, my gut went back to its dramatic self.
