Foods such as Junk food like chocolate or candy should be avoided. Any food in the cabbage family can cause your baby to have gas while breast feeding. This includes brocolli and cauliflower. Anything with caffiene as well are not good as it can cause colic or upset stomach for your baby. A general guide for eating while breast feeding is to remind yourself not to eat something that you wouldn't want your new born to eat themselves. You would never let your baby eat a big greasy hamburger, so a breast feeding mother should not eat that either.
