Hi Allegra,

welcome to the list!

My name is Camilla, 37, SMA II. I live in Germany and work as the

boss's assistant in a huge social network which cares about old and

disabled persons in Germany and South Africa.

I have a nice flat, an old cat and an adorable boy friend. Never give

up finding a man who loves you - in life and love everything is possible.

Have a nice day,

Camilla

le,

What country/area are you in? Perhaps someone on here is near you and

can furnish some grains.

Best wishes,

> My mom order a set of kefir grains and a kombucha SCOBY for us and her. We

got our starters yesterday, immediately did our first batch of Kefir. I whired

it up in a blender with a few frozen strawberries and some stevia - YUM. Now,

my kids are used to eating slightly sweetened plain yogurt - so the LOVED this

stuff and asked for more! LOL - I'm already out of the first two cups. Even DH

- whose very skeptical of anything sour milk related (he worked in a milk

factory for a few years) - asked if I could make one for his breakfast and set

it in the fridge every night. So - my ? - do I just have to grow a few of these

grains in order to get more Kefir everyday? 2 cups just won't do it for this

Kefir family.

>

>

>

I have tried adding 1 or 1.5 cups of milk to 1-cup kefir curds (without the

grains), leave at room temperature and it makes more curds the next day.

You can skip eating the curds for a day, so you have 2 cups curds plus the

grains, just add 4-6 cups of milk to that. Next day, you should have 6-8 cups

of curds total, just remember to save as much curds as you want with the grains

so you can make as much as you can eat for each subsequent day. Along the way,

the grains alone will grow and can make more curds than you can eat.

Also, I suggest you take things in moderation. Be mindful of the total caloric,

protein, fat... in a well balanced diet, rather than O.D. on one particular food

item, even if you take kefir curds with fruits and salad... The kids may skip

water, thinking kefir and fruit fluids and the ice in the smoothies may be a

good substitute, but don't believe it, the body still need water.

Mona,

My nephew is 11 and pretty hefty. I looked into diapers for him a

couple of years ago. I found the following site:

http://www.adultclothdiaper.com/

I'm not sure how comfortable you are with cloth diapers, but this may be

a solution for you. Also, cloth does not hold urine and feces as well

as disposable diapers. It may be the incentive your boy needs to make

the leap to the toilet.

I am sure you know what I am about to tell you, but I thought I would

share my experience:

I learned that the bigger I made the situation, or the madder I got, the

more my boy resisted the toilet. It was only after months of not

reacting that my boy decided to use the toilet.

I tried to take my boy into the bathroom every time I went. I talked

about how nice it was to be able to flush and be clean right away. This

helped him learn what to do, get comfortable with the idea, and get used

to the sound of the toilet (which scared him). I made it as positive as

possible; as positive as eliminating can be. At first he resisted, then

he just sat in the corner, then half paid attention, and so on.

I wish you well.

Hi Mona,

Welcome! My son (he is 9) is potty trained but he still has occasional accidents at night so he wears the Good Nights underwear? They come in bigger sizes then the pull ups. I'm not sure what you have already tried for potty training but we did potty day to start. We had him sit on the potty and play with his favorite toys and watch a video and when he went on the potty he got lots of praise and his favorite treat. Then he went and played but we brought him back after 1/2 an hour to sit until he went (we gave him lots of water to drink) and then we praised and rewarded him again etc.. We just kept increasing the time between potty breaks but we spent a lot of time in the bathroom that day! The next day we just kept taking him every 1/2 an hour and I gave him a toy to play with and a reward if he went but just a nice trying we'll try again if he didn't go. It took a few weeks

of taking him every 1/2 and hour but he learned to go on the toilet. Sorry this is so long! Kellie

Mona: I had the same problem with my son behavioral wise. He is on risperdal too and has gained 20 lbs over the summer. He needed the weight. Caleb was extremely hyper so we put him on ADHD medication just to see how he would react. A dream come true. He is on Daytrana patches. The ADHD medication also slowed down his weight gain.

Usually kids will do #1 before #2 on the toilet. All I can tell you is patience. Caleb wasn't potty trained until he was 4. It's not unusual for kids on the spectrum to take longer to train. Have you tried depends for ?

Mona welcome to the group. I haven't been a part of the group for long. This group has been a dream come true. Not only will you get advice about what you can try but you will get the opportunity to share things that have worked for you and .

Hi Mona, our son (6yrs, ASD) was potty trained at 3. He did (and still does) really well with routines. Every night we sat him on the toilet right before bath time and read stories to him...book after book until he went #2. Still, to this day, our son will only go #2 at 7pm right before his shower :)...never any other time of the day!

Point being, if he's a routine kid, whatever he likes, do it on the toilet in the same fashion every day and it might stick. Good luck!

Mona: Try finding some pictures. Our kids are visual so maybe if he can see a picture of what you are wanting him to do it might help. It's worth a try. I have a poster I can e-mail to you of a kid going to the bathroom. It takes you through each step. I keep it in my bathroom in hopes that one day my son and my husband would realize that the toilet seat goes up when they do number 1. lol I tried e-mailing the poster to the group but it wouldn't go through. If you don't mind I can e-mail it to your private e-mail. Gwen
