Pregnancy Info HOME

I've planned on breastfeeding my little one exclusively, no formula or supplementing, since we decided to get pregnant. But now I'm wondering something... Becaus gallstones that started making trouble around my 10th week of pregnancy I have had to be on a pretty strict low-fat diet. 20 grams or less of fat a day. Obviously not enough fat to sustain me at my weight and feed the little one inside me too, I have lost, not gained weight during my pregnancy. This has only bothered me a little because my uterus is growing fine and my 20 week ultrasound showed the baby growing fine too, I'm now about 31 weeks along. Ok, enough of the background and on to the question: The surgeon and I agreed on a waiting period of about 6 weeks after birth to have the gallbladder surgery, and it takes a little while after that to incorporate more fats into the diet. So, for about the first 8 weeks of my baby's life I will be getting a VERY limited intake of fat. Will my milk be nutritious enough for my little girl? Will SHE get enough fat intake? Should I think about supplementing my milk or just formula feeding her? I wouldn't worry if it was just the bad fats that were limited, but its ALL fats, even the good ones like in nuts avocadoes, chicken, granola. Also, I have to stay away from acidy fruits such as apples and oranges because they cause problems too. I mostly stick to grapes, pears and watermelon. Do you think with all the restrictions on my diet for the first couple of months I would just be better off formula feeding her? Sorry it's so long... it's just complicated, let me know what you think please. :o)
