Sorry it took me so long to respond... ...Hi again! Sorry it took me so long to respond... I must not have subscribed to receive the reply by email?? Anyway, my youngest has been allergic to dairy and eggs since he was an infant, so we've been watching what he eats for years. Most people would say, "Oh is he lactose intolerant?" when we said he didn't eat dairy. They didn't quite get it, but at least they were sort of on board with the dairy elimination... it made sense to them. The other two were only diagnosed this summer, and that's been harder because so many people remember when they could eat anything... it's harder for people to understand that things are different now.

Have they always followed the diet they're on now or did you start it more recently?

That helps a lot... it's not all up to me anymore.<br /><br />Lisa @ Allergy Free Vintage CookeryVintageMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545128418933344478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2938028794913237141.post-19158468628413753582011-10-10T09:47:37.258-05:002011-10-10T09:47:37.258-05:00hi cindy! oh no i'm sorry about your comments...hi cindy! oh no i'm sorry about your comments! i was missing you! thank you so much for the positive feedback- it's not easy is it?The Grain-Free Groupiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09849877695324536605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2938028794913237141.post-8656963676596612011-10-10T09:46:19.914-05:002011-10-10T09:46:19.914-05:00wow

I have this conversatio...ohhhhhhhhhhhhh I hear ya!<br /><br />I have this conversation with my own husband so I can totally empathize with you..<br />HOWEVER...<br />you are her Mom (and you ARE AWESOME) so RELAX.<br /><br />you don't have to explain. <br />you don't have to sweat.<br />you can just smile, say this is the diet i feel is best for her, and I have discussed with her doc and so I'm going with it.<br /><br />I hope you can respect that as her mother.<br /><br />done.<br /><br />don't let them bully you.<br />whoever "they"are. haha<br /><br />with us it's a compromise. I let 100% perfection go. It was making me insane.<br />my son is healthy, and balanced actually my whole family is more middle ground than ever.<br /><br />it's a process for every one but you are in charge of her so BE in charge of her and don't appologize for it<br /><br />just my 2 cents.<br />xoxox<br />good luck.Cindyhttp://www.mariposagirl.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
