if you need some strength to continue with SCD for your child...

[Guest guest]

Just wanted to share an anectode. My 3 ASD kids have been SCd since

the summer. My 2 year old twins were great responders, one more than

the other. Recently they started a school program and have been

stressed out at snack/lunchtime because the want the other kids'

foods. I decided that I would give it a try, allowing them to remain

gluten,casein,soy,corn and egg FREE but allow other grains and test it

out. Within 1 week my daughter who was the great SCD responder

completely crashed, massive diarrhea, abdominal distention, miserable,

night wakings, gas...I couldnt have asked for a more clear sign that

this diet was helping. Now I have to start over, but with a new

resolve, now that I know that I am doing it for a reason...

So...if anyone has recipes for cookies or breads that are SCD and egg

free I need help!!!! They need to think they are not missing out!

Hi,

We might be strange but we pulled our son out of preschool and have

desided to home school him. He often in the past has had problems

with his friends eating other foods. He still socializes quite

often. I play a game where he puts picutres of " legal " foods in a

basket and " illegal " foods in a " don't feel good can " . He now

worries about his friends being sick! Because he knows how much

better he feels eating " legal " foods! I know that we are bringing

him up to be DIFFERENT...but is it going to hurt? AFter all even

Elaine claims that this was the diet we as HUMANS where designed to

eat...that all these breads, cookies and things made out of

illegals.....cause all HUMANS to have diseases......not just us

SCDiet " wierdos " .

My kids like the eggless almond flour bread from the pecanbread website. I

use SCD legal Spectrum Shortning instead of the coconut oil (my daughter is

Igg allergic to coconut)

Last weekend, I substituted the coconut oil with Ghee (tastes a bit sweeter

I think) and made two round cakes for my daughters b-day party. I made the

PB & Butter frosting (also on the site) and added a bit of beet juice to

make it pink. The kids liked it and my daughter felt " Normal. " Of course,

you would need to use the superfine flour from Lucy's kitchen shop or

Digestive Wellness.

The recipes are below

Eggless Almond Flour Bread-adapted by Brandee

2 1/2 cups almond flour

2 pears-pureed using food processor

1/4 to 1/3 cup coconut oil (or spectrum shortning or ghee)

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

Preheat oven to 350.

Put all ingredients into food processor except flour. Process until it takes

on a " butter-like " consistency. Add almond flour adn mix until blended.

Spread some coconut oil (or other oil) all around bottom of an 8x8 baking

dish. Sprinkle a little almond flour on the bottom.

Spread mixture into pan and smooth out.

Bake 30 minutes

When cooled, cut into squares (I cut the squares in half to make sandwhiches

For frosting

Sheila's PB & Butter frosting

1 cup butter (or ghee)

3/4 cup honey

1-1 1/2 tsp SCD legal vanilla

1/4 cup peanut butter (I used cashew butter-tasted great_

Cream room temperature butter. (mix it until it starts to lighten) Add honey

and vanilla and mix well. Add peanut butter and mix well again.

Karin,

I have also decided to homeschool my son at minimum for kindergarten

until he is able to independently say " no " when others offer food. He is in

preschool now and only goes 2 days a week when his hab worker is with him

because the school will not guarantee that he will be kept away from other

people's food (very ridiculous, if you ask me). Snack time is only for one half

hour and they refuse to be responsible for him during this time. Their response

is " well, you should put him back in a contained classroom so he can be

monitored more closely " . I fought hard to put him into an inclusion preschool

class. He is in a class with 20 NT children and is doing extremely well! The

only problem is during snack time.

I don't think you are crazy. Check for homeschooling groups in your area for

adequate socialization time. Once I began researching this option, I was amazed

on how popular and successful homeschooling is.

I homeschool both of my kids. There are a lot of people who who

homeschool these days, for a variety of reasons.

For me, it's more of a matter of knowing my children and knowing how

they learn. I'd rather do it myself than fight the school.
