So we've had Belle on her special MSPI (milk/soy protein intolerance) diet for almost 3 weeks now and her acidic diapers are returning....We are dilagintly reading lables and barely ever eating out and when we do we double check all ingredients and ask what is in things and I'm sure we sound insane....But I feel like I'm depriving her...granted she still gets 3 meals a day and snacks but she can't always have what her brother does and she begs for it and my heart breaks bc she's not old enough to express her frustrations...we try to give her "special" treats....But now with the acidic dieapers back I fear we'll have to take the next step and remove eggs from her diet....poor kiddo :sadeyes I just don't feel like I'm doing enough....I just want her better...

I thought they were going to try the gluten free diet? Milk bothered me until I removed gluten and now I can eat cheese all day but fresh milk to drink makes my tummy upset. I hope they can get their heads out of their asses and finally figure it out for sure. Please feel free to PM me even if its just to vent.

Whats the cookbook? I have been on a gluten free diet for over 4yrs now. I have Celiac disease. I'm always looking for new cookbooks or figuring out how to convert normal recipes.

Man, that is so annoying! I understand that there are more people with dairy and egg allergies but when they keep saying "its Celiac, wait no it isnt, yes it is" I want to smack them for you!

The cookbook is called Special Diets for Special
Understanding and implementing Special Diets to Aid in the
Treatment of Autism and Related
Developmental Disorders
by Lisa Lewis, Ph.D.

If you want send me a pm and I can send you a copy if you just want the recipes if you do not want to buy it. It has recipes for celiac's (GF/CF diet). I have used many of the recipes for my son who has High Functioning Autism.
