Working Backwards

Instead of taking things out of my diet to see if the blood stops, I thought it might be a bit easier to work it backwards, Dr Jatla said we should see more blood if I eat more of the culprit. So... I am going to eat more gluten to see if that gets a reaction. I had a few helpings of wheat chex (AKA "Matt Crack") last night and there were little bits of blood in her diaper today. I don't think it means much, but I guess I can continue to do so. Right?

Hi Mommy :)
Well... after the "Matt Crack" (wheat chex, peanut butter and chocolate) and a PB&J sandwich for lunch today, while I was strolling around Hobby Lobby, I couldn't help but notice this funny smell following me. I brought sleepy Sammie to the potty and she had pooped all over! When I got her diaper off, there was so much blood. Now we wonder... was it the wheat or the peanuts?! I confirmed everything with the nurse when she called and I can be gluten and/or peanut free when I am ready. Since we are going out to dinner (anniversary date) on Friday, I will begin this new diet Monday. We are getting a little closer to closing this case! OH! and the funny thing is... while I was changing her diaper at Hob Lob, she kept smiling... and when we got home, she kept talking and talking. I called my mom and she couldn't believe how much Sammie talks! Really... she is in NO PAIN. And that makes me feel happy!
