We are still having the same issues every night (burping and acid reflux) now 21 days after giving Jayden a cheese sandwich, I realize the only real control I have is his diet. So for a little bit of time we will go gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, and peanut-free, along with ditching all of the other heartburn foods like citrus, chocolate, tomatoes, mint, spicy and fried foods.
Jayden's doctor will send us to an allergist and we are still waiting for a "go" from Kaiser to head over to OHSU.
I went to Keana's bakery today in SE Portland http://www.keanascandyland.net/ a great gluten free bakery that will work with all of your allergens and also to Bob's Red Mill Store in SE Portland http://www.bobsredmill.com/ .
I am very thankful that a friend took me to these places and explained A LOT of information to me. I am feeling very overwhelmed right now. I think what really got to me was going to the special bakery and realizing that it isn't really the wheat or the dairy that is a problem, these places are used to working with those options. Soy-free foods are more complicated and there seem to be less of them. Keana's will happy make me soy-free goodies but I'll have to order ahead of time to get them (just to make sure). Fortunately the bakery is on my way to my grandma's so I think going there will be some fun opportunities ahead to pick up a little this or that but I just have to remember always call first. Keana's said that they have over 1500 items that they can make, call them and ask them for any type of menu, the ship and deliver (503) 719-5131. They are going make Jayden a special birthday cake with a Star Wars theme. I am so happy he will have something special for his special day.
