So on Monday we started trailing apple with Iyla. Her very first food! It was exciting and a bit daunting actually putting food in her mouth for once instead of frantically trying to get it out. The first two days she wasn't that keen on the apple. She just spat it all out. But today, day 3, she ate the whole lot (she was up to 2 teaspoons) and she loved it. All morning she was happy as. Then she woke up from a nap at 1.30pm screaming blue murder. I thought she might just be hungry as she hadn't finished any of her bottles today. She still didn't want to drink it though. For the rest of the afternoon she cried, and whined and was extremely tired but wouldn't/couldn't sleep. She spewed a little but it wasn't too bad. I did notice lots of wet burps which made her scream and lots of putrid farts.
When Reuben came home from work i decided to do that muscle testing the chiro taught us to see if she was allergic to apple now. Monday and yesterday the muscle test tested good. But this afternoon my arm dropped. I did the NAET treatment myself straight away so now have to wait 24hrs to see if it's worked. Hoping and praying because this allergy isn't too bad (yet) that the treatment will actually work.
You are doing an awesome job Tash. Hang in there. Listen to your own Mummy instincts, because they are the right ones.
ReplyDeleteSeeing your child like that must have been very difficult. I just hope the treatment your chiro taught you works out. But if not, it’s best to have her checked by a specialist to know exactly the kind of food she is allowed eat. How is she now?

Eating solid food is a huge milestone for your child. Though it was too bad that instead of celebrating it and be happy, she spent most of her time crying and felt bad. That must have been difficult for the two of you. It was a good thing that your chiro taught you a test to determine whether she’s allergic or not. At the very least, you have a way to know beforehand, rather than have her suffer greatly afterwards. Anyway, I hope she’s feeling better now. But if it still occurs until now, it will be best to consult your specialist right away. Take care!
