Babies with eczema are at a much higher risk of developing food allergies—here’s why (and what you can do)

Eczema weakens the skin barrier, making it easier for food proteins to sneak in and trigger the immune system. At the same time, a baby’s gut is still developing and is more permeable—so when food gets in through the wrong route (skin vs. mouth), the body learns to fight it, not tolerate it.

✅ Protect the skin
✅ Introduce allergens early (with guidance)
✅ Build up the gut with healing foods

💛 DM me for a free 15-min Discovery Call to learn how a pediatric RD can support your baby’s gut + allergy journey.

Why is no one speaking up about these?

If your baby has been struggling with constant spit-up, colic, poor sleep, or fussiness after feeds, you’ve probably been told:

“It’s normal—your baby will grow out of it.”
“Try switching formula or cutting dairy.”
“They’ll be fine—just wait it out.”

But what if there’s a deeper root cause that you can address? Here are 5 hidden reasons for reflux that no one is talking about:

C-section birth – Babies born via C-section often have less beneficial gut bacteria, making digestion harder.
Early antibiotic use – While sometimes necessary, antibiotics wipe out good gut bacteria, affecting digestion and increasing reflux risk.
Mom’s gut health – If mom has gut imbalances, baby may inherit those same microbes that are causing digestive struggles & sensitivities.
Inflammation in the Gut – When the gut lining is irritated, undigested food particles can pass through, leading to increased discomfort, reflux, and digestive issues.
Gut imbalance – Low levels of good bacteria can lead to poor digestion, gas, and reflux symptoms.

Reflux isn’t just a phase, it’s a sign of what’s happening inside your baby’s gut. When digestion isn’t working properly, it can lead to gas, bloating, discomfort, food sensitivities, and even disrupted sleep. Instead of just managing symptoms, let’s uncover the root cause so your baby can feel better long-term.

You don’t have to keep guessing. Through gut testing, targeted nutrition strategies, and identifying key triggers, I help families get to the root cause of reflux—so your baby can finally feel better.

GUT HEALTH IS KEY 🔑

When starting solids, the right foods can support digestion, optimize gut health and reduce reflux! If your baby struggles with spit-up, discomfort, or fussiness after meals, choosing gut-friendly first foods can make all the difference 🫶🏻

As a pediatric gut health dietitian, these are my favorite 5 reflux-friendly first foods to help ease symptoms and promote better digestion:

🥑 Avocado – A great source of healthy fats that coat and soothe the digestive tract, reducing irritation.
🥚 Eggs – A nutrient powerhouse protein that supports gut healing. It’s also a allergenic food which we want to introduce early!
🍲 Bone Broth – Rich in gut-repairing amino acids that strengthen digestion and soothe inflammation.
🥒 Zucchini – A mild, easily digested veggie that’s soft when cooked and gentle on sensitive tummies.
🍏 Stewed Apples – Packed with pectin, a prebiotic fiber, that helps feed good gut bacteria and support digestion.

If you’re ready to start addressing your baby’s reflux from the ROOT (the gut) with diet and nutrition, I’ve got something just for you!

Probiotics are not a one-size-fits-all solution for your child!

👉 It depends on what strains they’re lacking - Different strains have different effects & help different symptoms. Probiotics should be tailored to your child’s specific needs based on their unique gut microbiome and their digestive symptoms. 🎯

👉 Sometimes probiotic supplements are not always needed - They are often used short-term. Long-term use may actually lead to an overgrowth of some strains, causing more gut imbalances. 🙃

👉 Stop guessing and get to the root cause - Probiotic supplements are expensive $$$. 💸 It may be more cost-effective to test and assess your child’s gut microbiome to get to the root cause of their digestive issues and determine what works best for them.

The good news is with p**p tests like Tiny Health, we can make precise nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations specific to your child’s health! 🎉💩

Following the link in my bio, you can easily access a Tiny Health Test that includes 1 initial + 1 follow-up with me to get your nutrition protocol at a very affordable price! 🔗 These assessments are not included if you purchase directly from their site.
