Look up Paleo and SCD recipes and you'll have all kinds of ideas. I also have used some of the meal plans I found at www.reddit.com/r/primalmealplan for dinners, though there are some breakfast ideas...
May give that a shot, though she has trouble producing a full feeding-worth after nursing. But I guess she'd have all day to keep adding to it to have enough for the midnight feeding. I'll bring it...
She's planning on doing 2-3 days of mostly intro diet with a bit of added veggies, and I'm going to read AIP as soon as I get it and we'll start that up ASAP. I've seen one other mention of...
She has done very well with SCD yogurt :/ We're already on zero grains and gluten, and also zero other dairy than that yogurt. I'll try to convince her to totally cut nuts and seeds, but almond...
We are sticking to diet stuff 100% even in remission, but when we wanted to get pregnant she went off the LDN just as a precaution per her OB....
Just bought the book. We'd been doing SCD and it seemed to control her during remission to stop new flares, but she's been having some eggs per SCD, but hasn't been healing (not that it happens that...
General update: I realize I didn't update the timing in my original post, since I copied it over from another forums before I'd found this one. The bad cramping and lots of stools were last Thursday....
Still not sleeping through the night, though I think he may be getting close. He nurses around 9 or 10, then 3am-ish, then 6-7am. Wife really wants to nurse him, because she feels it's good bonding...
She had been on LDN for a while, but after the flare had resolved she stopped it and the flare didn't return. At the onset of another flare she tried it again, but it didn't resolve the flare...
I've read about fecal transplants and mentioned it, but she seemed a little weirded out. She has a doc where she grew up that does some alt stuff and I may ask him what he thinks of it. I'd brought...
I think the last time she had the terrible flare up it was pancolitis, but another flare was only left side, I think....
We'll have to play around with the yogurt. I've seen a few people now saying it was bad, but a lot of people saying they didn't heal unless they were eating it every day. She drinks a lot of juice,...
Gonna do the intro foods only for a week. The way I originally read it, I thought the intro diet was just because if people didn't have the whole book, they wouldn't know what foods to eat, so the...
I try to be with my wife whenever she goes in for something I should know about. I mean, for her regular doctor or OBGYN stuff, no, but when she went in for GI stuff or for prenatals, I was always...
Thanks for the well wishes! While everyone is different, what legal foods from SCD did you have to cut out? We noticed yesterday she had cramping and sudden stool after eating a banana, so that may...
I've said I've seen "prednisone foam enemas" listed online with good results (mostly on this forums, I guess) but she's still somewhat wary of it. Drives me nuts that she insists no one knows about...
She tried a mineral oil enema at one point, but had issues getting it in since she was in so much pain. Thankfully the hard stool is over for now, so I'm hoping that's not an issue again for a...
Do you happen to have a doctor that doesn't push the meds? None of the guys in town that we've looked into take any sort of "holistic" approach, they just say she HAS to be on remicade or humira...
Thanks! I went back and bolded in the original post that she's allergic to asacols....unfortunately it's what a lot of people have found relief with. Mesalamine/Rowasa is not an option for...
My wife just gave birth to our son 8 weeks ago. He's perfect and healthy and great. My wife has ulcerative colitis, which up until just before the son was born was in remission. I mostly credit the...
