developing lactose intolerance?

Is it possible for a pregnancy to cause you to develop lactose intolerance? Ever since I entered my second trimester, every time I eat something with too much dairy it makes me vomit. I ate cheese fries and quesadillas and barely made it to the bathroom to puke, one morning I drank a glass of chocolate milk and was in the bathroom for an hour with terrible diarrhea shortly after and yesterday I had some ice cream and for the rest of the night I was nauseous. Has this happened to anyone else?

It doesn't really help but lactose intolerance is actually not an allergy, it's a normal development your body goes through at some point in your life. Anyway, try lactofree products. I don't know where you live but they're widely available here in the UK. There are also little tablets you can take to help you digest dairy products.

Yes. My friend got really sick from diary, and now she's fine, but her baby is lactose intolerant
