Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Hi, This is the 3rd day of my son being on the SCD diet, and he hasn't had a dirty diaper yet. He is usually good for one a day. Is this normal at the start of the diet? For lunch and supper he's had chicken or hamburger and for breakfast it's been squash, egg whites and bananas. Anybody with some info would be greatly appreciated,thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 I am new to this diet myself, so others correct me if I am wrong, but I think squash and banana are not allowed on the intro, and you won't know if your son has a reaction to these foods unless you start with only the intro foods, and then slowly introduce the others once he has a formed stool each day. I would also start without the eggs since so many kids react to it. My son had just chicken and hamburger on the intro, even for breakfast (I fed him while he played, and that helped him eat enough).

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Are you doing the intro diet? Highly recommended for at least a day or two to start with. Yes, constipation is common in the beginning of SCD. Make sure he's drinking plenty..... and you might consider adding a magnesium supplement.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 Intro diet only needs to be for a couple of days.
