Hi
It seems like your little girl has got cow's milk allergy. The milk/ milk containing products that you eat pass to your baby through breast milk. I would suggest that you stop taking milk and milk products completely for 15 days and see if there is any change in the symptoms. If you are not drinking milk make sure that you get enough calcium.
Thanks
