ABA and Celiac Questions from Newbie

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I'm brand new to the group. My son JP is almost 3yo, is a twin and

was recently given a provisional diagnosis of ASD. He and his twin

were recently terminated at their daycare because of safety concerns.

JP is self-injurious, has lots of tantrums, head banging, speech

delay and lots of other really interesting behaviors.

We started him on a dairy free diet and are going to start adding in

gluten free. He seems to burp constantly... is this an intolerance to

the gluten in his diet? I read a bit about Celiac Disease and have to

wonder if that isn't what might be going on?

Also, is there a way to see easily the difference between ABA therapy

and Floortime? I am completely overwhelmed and am struggling a bit

with denial. Any thought are appreciated!

Thank you,
