I only tried to make 1 large change to diet a week so I could listen to my body better with any negative responses.

Best of luck with the dairy.

We had a baby girl on the morning of Wednesday the 29th. My diet has been temporarily interrupted while staying in the hospital. My symptoms have increased slightly, but it is really hard to tell since several things have changed at once: diet, lack of exercise, a sedentary lifestyle without exercise for 4 days while living in a hospital room rocking my new daughter to sleep, etc... I will begin to update my journal more regularly in a week or two with observations as I have gone off the diet, and as I continue my diet again.

Congratulations... your daughter was born on my mothers 70th birthday and my wife´s cousin´s 50th birthday.

Wish you and your family a smooth transition in welcoming the new little one into the world.

Well, three weeks into having a new baby in the house. It has been wonderful, and we are thrilled to be parents. However, both my diet and exercise has completely gone by the wayside.

So a few quick observations. My lower back continues to have very little pain. However, my hip joints have been more noticeable - not painful, but I just am aware something is not exactly right with my hips. Is it a result of me falling off my NSD diet, or physical activity taking care of the new baby? Honestly, I cannot say with any degree of certainty.

What is a little frustrating is that no changes, either by going on an NSD diet, or by coming off an NSD diet, are dramatic enough that I can say whether NSD really helps me.

More to come as time goes by...

>> Added plain probiotic yogurt today

Probiotic Yoghurt is fine.. but I used to have trouble with the inulin powder that they add to "prebiotic" yoghurts. Just something to watch for.

Yeh that is a nuisance. I was always, until recently, highly reactive to starch. That made it much easier to work out what I reacted to, which is good in as far as I can work things out more easily. Bad though since obviously I had to be more careful than you.

Perhaps you should be looking at more of a low starch diet, and avoiding the very worst offenders, eg. highly refined starch, and deep fried starches. The latter, deep fried starch, is by far the worst of all in my experience. Even though I can now eat starch and bread again, I cannot however tolerated deep fried starches (although french fries seem ok thus far which is kinda weird?!?)
