Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 So we added applesauce today and all was well, so I thought I'd take my son to Safeway to buy more apples, etc. He popped into one of the car carts, we shopped and checked out and then I realized that he had grabbed a pack of Starburst and eaten a piece. Ugh. He has only been 4 for three days and me managed to swipe it. Here's my question...do I need to remove the applesauce or can we go on as planned? I think I know the answer, but I would like to make sure because the applesauce was such a bonus. On the plus side, I think the intro is already helping...he yodled to make me laugh, did some amazing coloring today and said " bless you " when I sneezed. Thanks so much, mom to Carson, age 4 ASD (SCD since 12/9/07, working up to it since Summer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Hi , You'll just have to keep an eye on him. You just started so the only thing it might do is prolong the inevitable die-off of bad bacteria. Those bacteria are going to be screaming for sugar. I wouldn't remove the applesauce but I would not introduce anything new for a few days. B.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I feel like such an idiot - I am too used to having my 5 year old daughter with us to " bust " her brother (my son was home sick today). He's never actually grabbed anything before. I could only see the back of his head in the car cart and it didn't even occur to me that he would grab the candy. We have been sugar free for ages and I totally blew it. School is going to be really hard. I am sticking with it though. , I am following your advice about the new foods...squash will be next and it will be over the weekend. > > > So we added applesauce today and all was well, so I > > thought I'd take my son to Safeway to > > buy more apples, etc. He popped into one of the car > > carts, we shopped and checked out and > > then I realized that he had grabbed a pack of > > Starburst and eaten a piece.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 , no problem! We've all done stuff like that. I think on our third or fourth day I gave my son a piece of lettuce with his hamburger. That was my " duh " moment. Incidentally, he reacted immediately with diarrhea within an hour. So hey, we knew the diet was on the right track! School hasn't been too bad for us...the kids are not allowed to bring food for birthdays. My son brings his lunch and his teachers are good about making sure he doesn't eat anything else. B.
