In a Nut Shell

I am the proud mother of three Young Men. The youngest is 42-months. We just started the looooong process of looking into food allergies and in-tolerances.
My youngest has had loose stools his whole life. He was born without the use of medications. His birth was "traumatic" in that he was posterior. He nursed exclusively for 6ish months. At that point he was able to grab food off my plate and get it in his mouth. So, he started trying out solids. He stopped nursing when he was 26-months-old.
About 2 months ago we pulled obvious dairy from his diet. It has helped a little.
So, we got a referral from our family doctor for a Pediatric Gastro Intestinal doctor. Who we saw earlier this week. He ordered a blood draw, a stool sample analysis, and put him on a low sugar diet (which feels VERY restrictive and from here forward is referred to as The List.)
