DS seems v unwell with runny poos, v bad wind and smelly wind. Its been mentioned on here that maybe hes intolerant to something im eating.Does anyone know what the main offenders are and how long if I avoid them would it take to see if it was working?

Start with dairy. Quite common for that to be the culprit. Other ones that I recall are tomatoes, wheat, and soy. Try eliminating one thing at a time. With ds I noticed a difference within a week I think. It was dairy for us.

I think caffeine can be a culprit, too, maybe?

How is his weight gain?

Dairy for us too - dd was projectile vomiting all her feeds and had blood streaked diarrhoea. Stopped within 24-48 hours. Had lesser symptoms with soy. She wasn't unwell with it. By all means try eliminating stuff from your diet, but I also think you should go back to your doctors (saw your other thread) if your child is unwell, especially if they aren't gaining weight.

Citrus juices can cause problems, if I drank it ds was not too happy and had a sore bum.
