Yes, I´ll definitely try that. Millet works well for us, so I´ll stick to that for a little while and see if it improves!

Hi again! Veggies/fruit and meat/fish (no grains except millet) is definitely better for DD2. Just wondering about gluten intolerance, is that something that is likely to get better when LO passes 1 year, what can I expect? I know everything about MPSI from DD1 but nothing about gluten intolerance. Is DD2 likely to be affected when I eat gluten (BF)? MPSI (and low acidic) diet is such a sacrifice already, I know for sure I cant do gluten free diet as well. But DD2 is fussy a lot of the time, and struggles with gas pain (at night) even though it is better when we´re doing no grains.. ???

It may make a diff you being GF :-\ hard to tell.
I have been told to keep T off gluten for 2 yrs. you could try introducing some brown rice, quinoa, or if corn is tolerated corn crispbread.

Hi, glad things are better for you now. Is he symptom free now ie no gas at night? That is great! Might be worth trying some GF grains again? Quinoa is such a great one if he can tolerate it.

Hi again! Sorry about my late reply. The summer has been quite hectic.

I´ve tested a lot of different food over the summer and it seems DD2 doesn´t have a gluten intolerance, but that grains in general has been a little hard on her tummy. Millet works fine and now she can take bread also as long as it has only easy digestible grains (I try to stay clear of wheat in particular). I tend to forget about quinoa, but it is definitely something I want to use more.

We still have a little gas, but nothing like before. That´s a great relief. Reflux is a lot better too (although we are still a bit careful with certain foods). In general, I think we are also benefitting from the fact that LO is getting older, 1 yr in a month!

Thanks for all help and support through these challenges with starting solids for a reflux&sensitive tummy baby! It has been very helpful and encouraging! :D

Great update :D
We have had success with dairy, soy, egg and wheat free bread ;)
Other options (even though quinoa is a great one) is polenta, amaranth and brown rice

Sorry I'm not sure I follow? - were you asking me? ;)
T is still dairy free. I was just saying he an have 'everything free' bread, which is nice. Maybe something your LO could try?

of course! dairy free BREAD. I just read: T has had success with dairy and I thought he could eat dairy again (and soy and egg!). I thought that was pretty amazing, having gone from being so sensitive ;) Yes, we definitely have success with "free-from everything" bread. I am gonna attempt to bake myself - as if I don´t have enough to do already with two little ones 8)

Just following your thread - cant get V to eat anything anymore after an allergic reaction to peaches - wont take a spoon at all.  Looking into BLW but gave her a banana and she choked so bad she threw up everywhere.  Do you still purée?

I still puree, Tom is fussy with food too. Bth my boys have always loved bready things, even though Tom can't really eat much. Crispbread, or toast, mini sandwiches. Tom loves chickpeas, raisins, mini patties (meat or vege)
I'm trying to give more texture so mashing rather than pureeing, and chopped really small.

Hugs, poor thing!
