As I said before, max is not a sick kid. I am sure you would agree when you see pictures if him but he has my allergies. Hopefully I can be more in tune with them and not make his stomach worse with the hope that he will grow out of some of them. But for example, when I drink soy, he does not sleep. He will wake up every few hours and just not seem to be comfortable. I have been searching for foods that are ok for Max since he cannot do wheat, gluten, soy or dairy. I cannot do these either. Put it this way..it has been one week off of these trigger foods for myself and I lost 5 pounds. I wanted to really see if his diet was making his sleep bad and so I cut them out myself and I feel like a new person.Doctors are now saying that allergies come from an imbalance of good bacteria in this body and so maybe Max will get in balance eventually. I am giving him a probiotic in his bottle and I am still nursing him in the morning and some snacks when he feels like nursing. Enjoy Life makes amazing products for kids with allergies and then I was at Whole Foods and found chicken nuggets and fish sticks made by a company called Ian’s. I am also going to make him some muffins after I go to the market and get the ingredients. I have to say that we do not eat much different that this for ourselves. My hubby does eat soy and oats but other than that we do not eat breads or sugar (except for my month long binge since Halloween). I guess I just feel so passionate about this because I want him to try lots of great foods and I am just trying to find all the ways that he can have yummy stuff in his life.I decided to bake cupcakes for his birthday party. I am really excited. I was going to buy them and then I said..screw it..I will bake them. How fun, LOL!!
