Hi there,
I am not sure if this is the right place to post this but from looking through old posts I have found people have done this.
My husbands father and brother are Aspergers, and a couple of his cousins are autistic. My husband has eczema (which disappeared on a dairy free diet) and I am dairy free due to a neurological issue which is not related to ASD. My husband's brother (with Aspergers) I believe also has problems with his stomach from comments he makes about his bowel movements...
I am just thinking about whether a good idea for us could be a dairy and/or gluten free diet for our baby as a preventative measure. I would like to BF if I can (and maybe should for as long as I can, even 2/3 years if I go down this diet route) but am wondering if any one here has followed a DF/GF diet from weaning and if so, how easy it has been, whether you think it was worth doing, and whether there are any research/books/sites etc. out there that might help.
Any advice/thoughts would be gratefully received!
