Guest guest Posted August 27, 2001 Report Share Posted August 27, 2001 I am a little down the past few days bc Jane has reached a plateau. I know I had read some of you had that experience. It's just that in the 7 weeks we have been gfcf, she has been doing remarkably well (sleep through the night, longer attn span, less hyperactivity). The past few days, however, she has been having her pre gfcf night fits (waking up and crying). She has also been much more impulsive(bites, hits, sits on, etc. brother for no reason, except maybe he got too close to her). I actually thought today that she might be out of control in a few years if this keeps up. She's only 2 now. I even told my dh last night that I was sick of this gfcf diet and did he think it was worth it? Well, this man is the world's pickiest eater and has wholeheartedly endorsed the entire house being gfcf(down to the dish detergent!), which suprised me. He is also a chem. engineer (yes, I do think a pedi. for a dh would be the worst!)who only thinks in black and white. But that's beside the point. My dh said, " Yes, it has helped, we need to continue " . So, I know it is helping/has helped. I just need to hear that a plateau is ok, to stop now would lead to greater regression, etc...I need a boost! Why has she plateaued?(Is that spelled correctly? Looks funny)Do I need to be searching for hidden culprits? There is the dreaded corn that I have been suspecting she might have problems with. But that is soooo frightening to think of gfcf and corn free!!!! Thanks for listening.
