Re: Undigested food in stools

[Guest guest]

Cheryl,

I'm not sure why, but in the first month or so of SCD we also had undigested

food in our stools. It ended gradually. I wondered about it, too.

This is exactly what is going on with us, too, with our 15 month old. One stool

perfectly normal, the next yucky, mushy, undigested food. So strange. I'll

just keep an eye on him (he's scd about 2 wks now) then.

No, they don't have to be given that way but for some reason I have been

pureeing things for 4 months! I also cut up veggies very small when I put

them in a meat sauce. I still puree for meatloaf. In the beginning I think

it is helpful for digestion. Kind of like

how easily digestible baby food is then you move on to chunky stuff. Just

think it may help to puree. You could try it for a week or so and see how

the stools look and then if not helpful go back to chunks. I would just

make sure they are cooked well.
