Anyone developed lactose intolerance during first trimester?

Started noticing that I react very badly when I consume dairy products in my 9wk. I think I developed lactose intolerance due to my pregnancy. Anyone else had the same experience?

Is it the smell or that you can’t keep it down? Many mamas find that they are especially sensitive to dairy products in the first trimester. You could try soy products if it helps :)

Hmmm, it’s pretty common I feel - not the first time I’m hearing this experience. What about trying to consume ikan bilis and other forms of calcium? I’d stay away from dairy if it causes you to feel the way you do which can really upset your day.

My gynae actually told me not to take dairy products actually. After i got GD, i took back low fat milk for a period of time then was ok..
