Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 jeanne this isn't sabrina but thought i'd chime in - maybe there's stuff he's reacting to(hence stomach pain etc) that is keeping the gut from healing and then keeping the gut/brain connection from happening??? my son is on almost 8 months and i don't see the progress i'd hope for - i did see some great signs in the beginning - started singing for the 1st time ,then was chewing his sleeves like crazy - yucky but i took it as his oral stuff kicking in (he has a speech delay) but that stopped and i haven't seen much since - i'll keep him on as he has yeast as well (stool tests showed) and new GI said maybe leaky gut and to stay on but it is tough to not see progress -hang in eileen 2 years 4 months scd son 8 months scd > > > > If so maybe you can answer: > > > > Has this diet been [extremely?] helpful and if so how long did it take till you saw some results?

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I am bot either but ditto what Eileen said about sensitivities, you kind of have to play food detective. If you are not going by the stages at Pecanbread.com in terms of more digestible food I highly recommend doing so! > > > > If so maybe you can answer: > > > > Has this diet been [extremely?] helpful and if so how long did it take till you saw some results?

I am doing the stages but nothing seems to have happened yet where I can say- great or at least see some change. He continues to have bloating and now complaining of stomach pain. any thoughts as you get the diet and saw great change with your son. I think I am doing something wrong. I am sure of it. hope to get some feedback. need it. Jeanne What are you feeding him? The more detail the better, in terms of helping.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Jeanne, First of all, I'd like to say what a wonderful mom you are for trying SCD for your son. It is so much work, as we all know, and many moms don't try it for that reason. Please send us a list of all the foods, drinks and supplements that your child is taking. We can help. Is your son dairy free or is he having yogurt and cheese? Not every kid responds the same way or in the same time frame. Your child may be taking longer because of his gut issues. My son did not have overt gut issues although I'm sure he suffered from dysbiosis. The only supplements we use are OLE and vitamin D3. Occasionally we give him a few drops of GSE.
