Baby Starting Diet

My dd is 3yo. No dx other then unknown seizure disorder, speech delay and ADHD, She has high receptive language skills and I couldn’t get the drs to see past that and see past the seizures…and not blame it on “pre-existing” conditions. Seizures are under control at this time w/this diet :-) She started talking after being gluten free casein free diet for 4 months. Things are getting better…no ADD at all. We are waiting for a hair test on dd.

Now my ds is 15mo. He is not talking…at all. We started fish oil and he is babbling a bit more. He was dx with reflux at 6 weeks old. As an infant he used to go in spurts of eating and starvation. We tried every type of formula but he refused to eat. We even tried soy which he projectile vomited up. He would poop as many as 10 times a day. On one of our many trips to the hospital he was admitted and tested for allergies. RAST blood test of course was negative. But is IgG and IgA was all messed up. It showed no antibodies or something like that…they explained it has being zero (I will go back and check). They didn’t understand what it meant but wanted to check again later for “metabolic” problems. We put him on neocate. He still did on and off feeds not as bad though. We retested and he tested a bit off but fine, we were happy because there weren’t any red flags. At this time we were struggling w/our dd but didn’t know of the diet. Then we switched him to whole milk because he loved yogurt and needed more food and would drink milk best. Then started solids…he loved. Now he eats almost anything and lots of it, but he is staying at the same weight (23lbs). Now my dd used to poop green before the diet. Now my son poops green too has for quite some time. We removed milk 3 days ago. He is now very whiny and screaming and crying, but no green poop. He also got an double ear infection10 days ago. He has always been susceptible to colds (we blamed reflux but now not sure). He also has always had eczema like bumps on his thighs and cheeks.
