Feeding is going very well. CJ6 is taking larger portions and more variety. I find that if I cut the food into larger chunks, he takes more volume, but I have to be careful not to make the chunks too large. As for variety, he ate homemade pear gelatin last week and honeydew melon this week. There is nothing besides celery that he truly does not like. I am soooo proud of him!! Also, when we went up to Vermont for Christmas week with friends, he immediately ate the food placed in front of him without prompts or protocol. I would turn around and see it being inhaled! Of course, we are back to protocol this week, but I was very impressed and view that as a positive sign.
All I seem to be doing is shopping for organic foods and cooking!!! I cooked carrots, caulifour, chicken, pearsauce, brussel sprouts and yogurt yesterday. I used the blender so much yesterday that I actually burned out the rotating device on my Kitchenaid blender and had to got out and buy a new blender at 10pm last night. Making my own SCD legal almond yogurt is actually very easy.
Now that we have the eating down, we need to work on the pooping thing. Of course, now that CJ6 is eating so many healthy foods with wonderful fiber, we are having multiple poops each day. It would be great if CJ6 were not afraid of the toilet!!!! Yesterday I sat himon the potty for 20 minutes, only to have him get off and poop. I threw out that pair of underwear only to have him poop 4 more times. I was totally pissed by 8pm!!!!
On another note, we are seeing huge cognitive burst and CJ6 has just started imaginative play. This is not something that can be taught by a therapist. It is a developmental milestone and that is amazing that he has finally started doing this. I t could be because his brain and mitochondria are finally getting glucose or it could be because of the chlorella and cilantro combo. We only started to do that 4 weeks ago and began seeing imaginative play 2 weeks ago.....hmmm.
