Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Hello fellow parents, My second son, six months old, is starting on solids and I have yet to find a zwieback toast (or other suitable finger food for his age) WITHOUT milk/dairy ingredients. I've checked 5 different brands at a couple different stores. Has anyone found a product and used it successfully (no allergic reaction)? Thanks! - in Mobile, AL Reality lies beyond the horizon...

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Hi , I gave my second just regular zwieback toast. Dr. Goldberg says to avoid dairy, but if I remember correctly, foods that have just a touch of dairy (like bread) should be OK. My daughter never reacted. But if your older son reacts very strongly to dairy, then I can understand you apprehension to milk even as a minor ingredient for your younger son. Anyone know if saltine crackers are OK? I remember when my daughter was 6 months old. I was so anxious and nervous about would I lose her somewhere along the way too, like I did my son. Hopefully you aren't suffering from this as I did, but if you are it might ease you to know that my daughter is doing just fine. She's almost 3 and talks and talks and talks. She lights up a room when she enters and my son adores her (when they aren't fighting over toys). It has been such a blessing, a dose of normalcy, for our family. Dr. Goldberg asks after her and watches for signs to make sure she's progressing as she should, and that helps me feel secure.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Here's another method of assurance. Since ASD is a movement disorder, there is a test that can detect it as early as 6-8 months of age. You hold the baby in front of you by their hip area and tilt their body from side to side 45 degrees each direction. A baby with neurological damage such as autism will allow their head to tilt with their body, a baby who is developing normally will keep their head perpendicular to the ground while they are being tilted. This milestone is reached between 6-8 months of age. - April Jagnow <april@...> wrote: Hi , I gave my second just regular zwieback toast.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 There are some little animal shaped cookies/crackers at the Good Earth Store in the gluten free/dairy free isle. They are very good. > > Hi , > > I gave my second just regular zwieback toast.
