I'm back on wavering about whether I'm going to put Bright Eyes on this incredibly strict diet called SCD - the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. I know that the homeopath is going to recommend that I do when I take him next week.
It sounds scary... I don't know if I can... I don't know if he'll eat... am I being cruel depriving him of food... will it have good effects on him... am I wasting my time...
Something that may help me decide is an allergy expo that is being held this weekend up in Sydney. I just discovered it online tonight! And... there's a beautiful new recipe book for SCD being launched, plus free seminars, and my guess is, free taste testing.
Am I up for it????

It's good to know we're not alone. We also have a 3 year old autistic boy. He is non verbal though.
Enjoyed your thoughts. We've been thinking about the GF/CF diet and I know how you feel. Total lifestlye change involved.
Hi Becky and Raman, nice to meet you. I'll have a look at the videos tonight (when no boys are around...) Becky - I do recommend GF/CF - it made a difference for us. My advice would be to start slow. I should probably take my own advice for the SCD...
