help infant has autism please help

 

I am a childminder and have cared for a number of children that have experienced diarrhoea. 

There are so many bugs going around the toddlers, plus people are generally more social these days. We are all sending our children to nurseries, playgroups,toddlers etc. to encourage our children to become social.

The concern was -  that when a toddler has diarrhoea -

 the bad bacteria will continue to multiply if they are fed milk during the illnesss -

They need clear fluids to keep them hydrated and protect their brain - aviod cows milk at this time, if at all possible

Cows milk multiplies the bad bacteria -

Please advise other parents with new babies and anyone with a child specifically under 3yrs of age - if their baby/child becomes ill with diarrhoea they must aviod giving the baby/ child cows milk until they recover. use alternatives if you have to - plus ask your G.P. for dietry advice. 

Wierd thing is -  yoghurt contains all the good bacteria to put the balance back in the gut - so aviod the cows milk but still try yoghurt, you can get pro biotic drinks too, but advice is only use them for a child when they are ill, as children don't normally need probiotic products in their daily diet.

 I phone Morrisons customer care helpline - they were really helpful - gave advice re: consuming probiotics and yoghurt if under 3yr old and during pregnancy

 

 

Please spread the word - thanks

    I have seen an infant change their behaviours markedly and without any doubt.

    I work with three other educated adults, one has SEN & ASD experience as do I. We are not experts and do not claim to be. We have all confirmed our observations and agree the infant was definately not showing signs of ASD prior to the incidence of TD

    These behaviour changes occured after the TD finished

    The infant is now presenting with ASD classic behaviours that were not present before the TD

    I will happily go into detail should you require more info

    I want this to disappear like it never happened like a bad dream or something, but here we are, I want answers and I know this will rock the boat and I dont know where to turn for the solution.

     If the TD episode is a significant factor I want it to be known as such and I am aware that there is plenty more research to be conducted.

    I have observed and care for a child that is currently on the Casein and Gluten free diet and aviods food addatives, takes calcium supplements amongst other suppliments. I asked the childs parent - what happened when the diet changed over? "The improvement in speech was the most amazing thing of all and occured overnight"

    The child currently presents as a bit shy - I dont think the child would be recognised as ASD currently - no the child has definately not been cured - the child is a teenager and has always been on this diet.

    We just want to help others and find answers to this TD connection - It seems a very significant event to the four of us - all four of us have witnessed this incident.
