Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Jeni Lynn, I am so happy for you! There really is something to this elimination diet beginning. We still eat a protein often with a bone broth for each meal. I am so thrilled for you! This brings tears to my eyes! *doing the SCD wiggle dance* All the Best! Summer furryhalfpint wrote: Ok guys! I had some WOWS today and needed to share them with those that can appreciate such events. We are on the second week since restarting SCD with some Dr. Natasha (Gut and Psychology Syndrome) tweeks. Someone had asked earlier to explain these tweeks. Basically, it is the same as Elaine's version with very minor adjustments. 1) For every meal you serve a meat, a meat broth, and a pureed, easily digested vegetable (like squash). You do this until you get formed stools and then continue it for two weeks after that point. 2) There is no fruit allowed during this introduction time. 3) As with Elaine's version, eggs are acceptable during this introduction (although we, personally, can't use them due to Elle having SEVERE IgG reactions on her ELISA test).

So if you are interested in more of this intro, contact Kayla]. Well, first of all . . . Elle's eczema is completely gone. This time I am hoping it stays gone. I do think a lot of this has to do with the introduction of Yasko's EFA supplement which includes flaxseed oil and borage oil, but I cannot deny that I feel like our simultaneous restart has helped to give eczema the boot. Elle has slightly red cheeks today where her eczema used to be. But I think this may be due to a phenol reaction to the squash we are eating. . . but NO BUMPS OR CHAFFING OR OOZING OR SLOUGHING! Next, today when Elle woke up from both of her naps today. She began calling, " Mama! Mama! MAMA! " She has never done this before. She rarely ever says my name without being prompted even when I am in her presence. So for her to call for me from another room when I am out of her sight is really big. Then, she spoke her first sentence today (I think). She was trying to bring her pull-along snail up the stairs today. Being that pull toys do not glide easily up stairs, the string popped out of her hand at one point, and the toy fell half way down the steps. She turned sad and looked at me and said, " Hup peese!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Elle ... began calling, " Mama! Mama! MAMA! " Jeni Lynn, this brings tears to my eyes. What hard work you have done to bring Elle to this point! You surely deserve such a wonderful thing in time for mother's day.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I am so happy that others are having success! It made me cry too when I read this. Isn't it nice to know that you are on the right path? When Kiki said ma ma ma...and gave me a hug for the first time I just cried...it was nice to be on the right road. I am so glad I am not alone on this journey. God bless you, and keep you Antoinette > > Elle ... began calling, " Mama! Mama! MAMA! " > > Jeni Lynn, this brings tears to my eyes. What hard work you have done > to bring Elle to this point!

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Fantastic news for Elle (and Mommy)!! We too struggle with eczema -- dreading the summer months as the flare-ups tend to be worse. Would you mind sharing the price of Yasko's EFA supp? We presently give evening primrose oil and CLO but doesn't seem to help. Just ordered my Dr. Natasha Gut and Psych book - can't wait to read it. Please keep us posted on Elle's further successes :-) Kim :-) 3 yo ASD, 2 yo NT, expecting in Dec. Just starting SCD. Elle has some firsts Ok guys! I had some WOWS today and needed to share them with those that can appreciate such events. We are on the second week since restarting SCD with some Dr. Natasha (Gut and Psychology Syndrome) tweeks.
