Confused ??? need some help

[Guest guest]

Hello all

Can someone there please give me some advise

My 3 yr daughter has been on SCdiet for 2 months now. Showed a big improvmen by

3rd week. was well for 3 weeks when suddenly she started darrihea, watery.

Initially it was just darrihea and now for last week and half we see blood

(sometimes few streaks, patches here and there)in every second poop. We also

started probiotic. Poop has gone little loose but not that watery darrihea

She is only on stage 1 food + all the intro food. I am scared to give her stage

2 food, thinking what if it gets worse. Finally I have decided to give her some

yougurt (almond). started yesterday. Havent seen any difference

I am confused, seeinng blood every now and then, stool getting loose, does this

mean NO HEALING TAKING Place???

Should i just stick with stage 1 food till she shows some improvement??

Can any one please advice What to do. Will greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks

Rani,

SCD can be up and down in the first few months and first year. Stage 1 foods are

fine at 2 months if she has a variety of foods and vitamins if needed.

Is your daughter on any medication? Perhaps that needs to be adjusted. I would

do whatever is needed for her to heal. The yogurt may be helpful- proceed slowly

as tolerated. Bone broth soups also help.

With a child though, I would be in close contact with her doctor. It is

different with children than adults. First of all: we don't need to grow and

develop, but they do- and they need extra energy and nutrients. Most of us

adults could handle losing a few pounds- but not a small child. So it is

important not to tolerate symptoms for long.

I would also consider other factors: is she eating well, gaining weight, energy,

developing well, healthy, active?

I think there is also a yahoo group for pecanbread.com- parents of children on

SCD that can help with advice, but seek out good medical care too. We have to be

extra vigilant with the little ones, as I know you are as her mom.

Hope she feels better,

PJ

This is just a thought because it happened to me. I was perfect then started

probiotics (low dose) and now I am a mess. I am not sure if my problem is the

probiotics but I stopped and will try much later - you might want to check that

out. I can not do yogurt, either. Stick with it!
