what does improvement look like at first?

[Anonymous]

I don’t think I’m wording that right…

My question is: If my baby is still gassy & fussy at night does it mean he is reacting to something in my TED diet …after 4 days…7 days..etc ? (not stinky gas–but never was) I’ve only been on TED for 6 days, but haven’t seen any consistent improvement. The mucus is crazy–but I know that will take a while. How long should I wait before cutting out some of my TED foods?

Bodhi also has a cold/cough, so that could be affecting his reactions too (?)

Thank you!

Definitely keep up with TED… my LO had mucuous for abut 4 wks after starting TED, with less and less over time. He also had blood in his stool but that went away fairly quickly, within the first week or two. Anway, give it more time 🙂 You’re doing great!

Hi. I’m new here but have been lurking and reading for awhile now. Colleen-your situation sounds similar to mine (no stinky gas). I also suspected an overactive letdown started us off on the wrong foot…

Did you ever get clearcut improvement?

One thing that helped us was using a manual pump to express just a bit of foremilk in addition to the block nursing. If baby was still hungry I could always give him the expressed milk. FYI-I did 12 HR blocks

No…haven’t seen improvement 🙁 . I went to an NAET practitioner to narrow down his allergies and adjusted the diet. We did get some stinky gas eventually…. I didn’t think it was dairy — but took him to a biofeedback session yesterday, and he showed up sensitive to dairy. Ugh. I feel like I’ve been trying so many things and he keeps getting worse. Now I’m going to try the GAPS diet which is supposed to heal leaky gut. I really hope it helps us!
