Guest guest Posted October 28, 2001 Report Share Posted October 28, 2001 My older son was obviously different by 9 months...and although many people including doctors said he would grow out of it...he didn't. And we know we have a genetic correlation. If you suspect anything, I would bring it up because the sooner you get going on helping/intervention the better. If she is fine, that is great, but it doesn't sound like it. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2001 Report Share Posted October 28, 2001 We started all this when was 9 months old, and I thank God that we did. I think that we saved him from much damage. I know everybody is probably tired of hearing it, but I would suggest that the child have a hair metals analysis done. That way, you could see if there's any mercury levels, but what I would find interesting is whether the baby has high levels of antimony and arsenic. One local doctor here in rural Missouri is finding many children around a year old who have the same signs. However, he is only checking lead levels, and is finding lead in these kids. Interesting that lead is bound to antimony when mined, and they are so close in properties to each other, that depending on how specific the test is, they may actually be poisoned with antimony. I am going to make an appointment with this doctor to try to persuade him to recheck his patients. A hair metals test from Doctor's Data is non-invasive and only about $75. > 9 month old baby?? > > Hi, I don't post often here but do try to keep up > with this list as i have a son who has been on the > diet for 2 yrs > now----with great success, I might add!

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Hi I just read your message. I am a mom to a 5yo son PDD-NOS and have a 5mon old daughter. Thank GOD she is developing on target and doing ALOT more than my son did at this age. She is VERY social, laughing cooing etc... All I can say is that my daughter is not eating or drinking and products containing casein and gluten together. I have her on rice cereal and drinking similac. I tried soy and she is VERY ALLERGIC to it ( blood in stools and cries constantly ). I would suggest to her to have her Pedi check the baby. Does she know about autism? the criteria etc... maybe if she is open enough you could give her some literature. My son got evaluated at 1 1/2yo only after my mom and his Godmother approached me and sat me down with a medical book on autism and pointed out how much Nik fit into the spectrum. I then began my long journey, and making great strides I am glad to say. If you need any further help please feel free to e-mail me privately. Hugs, Terry.B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
