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

  • so you are all certain that this infant,

    although social from birth and developing well in all areas,

    except for the speech delay, was born and not made ASD

    the TD was a set back but ASD was always there?

    there are so many conflicting reports and mine was one of them.

    This infant definately has ASD now and we are wanting to move forward quickly to help as much as we can.

    For a minute we thought we had a significant something that stood out. I am sorry for going about things the wrong way, I have ADD and my family is full of so called disorders, if there is some information that will help others its good to share it, we thought we had noted a significant observation.

    There are a lot of children with ASD in our locality, not just the ones I have mentioned. Either ASD families choose to live here or there is a cluster for some reason, be it coincidence or environmental.the schools dont have funding or rescources or enough staff to cope. the government has the policy EVERY CHILD MATTERS but depends what your postcode is and how hard you and your parents are willing to fight for what is a basic right. we have just identified a horse project for children  - 10 free sessions to any child living in the local area - I have been telling everyone about it.it is funded by children in need and its possible it is nationwide not just in this county and post code lottery, i know two families that have children that participated and said how wonderful it was for the children they gained so much from the experience
