I looked into the GAPS diet. I agree its a bit hard when your child only eats certain things, mine are shocking with their food. All 3 older ones! Though DD1 isn't too bad & is getting better.

Yesterday I did the food shop, because I'm possibly putting the kids in the Steiner school in the next month or so, I cut out all processed foods. Including DD2's go to food, bikkie & cheese (le snack things).

No white bread in sight. 2 loaves of wholegrain & one of wholemeal (DD2 will NOT do seedy bread), over load of fruit.

Only thing I bought that wasn't perfect was pies & doughnuts. I'm worried DD2 will starve, but if she gets hungry enough she might try new things

There are still a few things on the GAPS list I bought (OMG, I didn't buy apple juice! Thats the only thing the kids are allowed besides water!! One a day, they're going to DIE! ), I really just want to cut out processed foods & additives. I know DD2 is sensitive.


It was PDD-NOS our GP suggested yesterday. I completely forgot.

DS started avoidance behaviour a while ago, but I didn't really notice. Telling me the music was too loud in the car, turning all the lights off in the house. He's never eaten mashed potato. There aren't any other mushy foods we really have, so not 100% sure about that one. I've noticed he doesn't mind spicey & tangy foods. Last night we had a kiwi fruit that was just on the verge of being not ripe yet & he loved it.

Its only been since DD2's seeking was picked up & I started reading about all that stuff, that I started seeing these behaviours in him. I'd never heard of any of this stuff before.
