hi. im new. want to start scd but have questions i couldnt find answers for

[Guest guest]

hi. i have a 20mo old. he is suspect of having ASD and has very bad

sensory issues with all senses. he cannot have any dairy-suspected

allergy, allergists wants to hold off on nuts, eggs give him diahrrea,

(ok in baked goods it seems tho), and he has been on gfcf with no dyes

or vanillin since june. my question is he is very picky due to

under/over reaction tactile sensory issues and he flip flops with

them. my bigger problem is he cannot even chew a peice of chicken

breast the size of a raisin. hes still on waiting lists for OT and PT

but they believe he may have a degree of oral motor dysfunction and he

also has gross motor planning dyspraxia. i am used to feeding

with 'trickery' as i call it but there is so little he can eat! altho

gfcf rid him of most his GI, it still wasnt quite right, and at times

i notice extremely fluffy and paler BMS. i took out potato a few days

and they became more solid than ive seen since starting solids.

does anyone have experience with a child with both sensory and

oral/gross motor dysfunctions? i really want to start this diet, and i

am working on seeing and affording a DAN but that will take 3 mos with

the wait list. i'd appreciate any help, words of encouragement,

thoughts, or special recipes. thankx!
