The elimination diet is OVER!! :!: I'm happy to report that nothing I eat seems to bother Gabe or aggravate his reflux. So I'm saying goodbye to the elimination diet and HELLO to real food! It's so nice to eat yogurt again. I like not having to stress… more »

So something in my bland diet is giving Gabe gas. I can't figure out what it is so I'm going back to the super-duper bland diet for a few days. AGAIN. He was to a point where he was sleeping GREAT and only waking once, maybe twice to feed. Now, with the… more »

I have no clue how long it's been. Really it doesn't matter anymore. At first the strict diet was hard, but I'm in a groove now. I'm eating healthier than I ever have before, I'll tell ya that!! ;) Lots of green veggies and grilled/baked chicken. Gabe… more »

I don't know what day I'm on. I need to count it out. I had wheat yesterday. And corn. Stupid to try 2 big things at once, but with as much running around as we've been doing it's hard to find food to eat quickly. Gabe seemed okay today, but his diaper w… more »

Today was a bad day for food. We really need to go to the grocery store. I hope Gabe doesn't react badly, but I wouldn't be surprised. Bad, bad mommy. :oops: I had: fried chicken with the breading picked off some mashed potatoes from the chicken p… more »

Today the boys and I went to Whole Foods so I could pick up some probiotics. The directions say to take it 3 times a day. I hope it really helps Gabe! I picked up Gabe's prescription for Prevacid today. We'll start giving it to him tomorrow. I feel so… more »

Nothing big today. Gabe seems to be doing better. Still a bit fussy, but I'm wondering if he's going through a growth spurt right now. He's eating like crazy and sleeping a lot. I hope I get a bit of sleep in tonight. I didn't add anything new in. In… more »

Gabe was really crabby starting yesterday evening and then all night last night. I didn't get to sleep until 2am and then I just got snippets of sleep the rest of the night. I ended up giving him some Maalox which helped some. The reflux was terrible. A… more »

Today I had some wheat. I'm going to see if that bothers Gabe at all. I really hope it doesn't because it would really broaden my food options. I really want to get to Whole Foods asap. I've been told they have a dairy-free probiotic. I want to get o… more »

Still truckin' along with this stinkin' diet. I had some Rice Dream ice cream the past couple of nights. It had mint and carob in it. It was really good, but last night Gabe had a bad night and it made me wonder if it had something to do with the ice cre… more »
