Hi einnoc


I have tried gfcf diet but failed miserably. I thought since my kids have no school now so will try again just for one month n hopefully I can do it with no cheating.

Today is officially the first day.
Breakfast was gluten free oats with chia seeds n maple syrup n sonic cholesterol.
Lunch was rice milk with sonic cholesterol. Pan fry free range beef n free range scrambled eggs.
Afternoon snack was raw cookies n coconut juice added with magnesium n lithium.
Probiotic.
Dinner most likely rice with fish n hormone free chicken soup.
Rice milk with some supplements before sleep.

N I already :scratchhead: what to cook for them tmr le.

Btw u can buy gfcf cookies from back to basic. They bake in the shop. Just need to keep in fridge.

Thank you Woggles & Nugget. I think i might try to remove the milk first then soya sauce. Coz i found replacement for these two items. But for bread, cakes and cheese... anyone has substitutes/ recipes? i don't mind baking for him but the recipes that i found online consists of so many different types of flour....i dunno which one is the best combi but i bought a box of gluten free, diary free ready-mix flour from NTUC Finest. i hope it taste ok as my boy is really a fussy eater.

Just to share an embarrassing moment last fri. I took a train w my boy and was teaching him abt the vehicles i spotted below us... Car, Lorry, bus etc....
He was enjoying it and echoing after me, car....Still in very good mood, he said you fair, you fat, you fart. i dunno what is he trying to saying as i couldn't make out the words but they certainly sound like fat & fart. I have not taught him such words nor were these present in his dvds. I seriously have no idea where he learn these words or was he trying to refer to other words. Embarrassing, i quickly cover his mouth before another F word comes out!

I tried GFCF diet on my doter for close to a year. The bigger and higher-end supermarkets carry gluten-free bread that is available at their frozen section. There are different flavors (I cant remember what they are). We will steam it before she eats it, sometimes we do French toast with this bread as well.

Do check it out.

I remember buying it from the supermarket at raffles shopping centre. It’s located at the frozen section where they keep things like prata, frozen cake etc. You can also ask the staff and they should know.

Another place where I have bought it before is at Fusionpolis Market Place. At one time I could not find it and I asked the staff and they helped me locate it. Also at the frozen section.

Why childcare with iccp programs are less compassionate about the special need kids than mainstream childcare?

In course of 3 years we are turned down by 4 childcare with iccp program and accepted by normal childcare. It is not like parents want to jump from childcare to childcare but for us we are shifting home, so it don’t make sense to drive 3-4 hours when sending and fetching kids.

There was a period when I explored ICCP for my doter. The centers that I called told me that there was a wait list of special needs children waiting to get into their centers. They also explained that they have a quota for special needs children that they could take in.

Maybe that's why the centers are not as flexible as the mainstream cc in accepting children.

Your post about ICCP just triggered a distant memory that my son is/was on the waitlist for about 2 years now…and never heard a peep from center chosen and he is already going on to Pri 1 next month.


Suggest can forget about this alternative unless you have some string to pull.

Mummies and Daddies,


Any of your child goes to mainstream school? Are they supportive of high functioning autism/Asperger? How do the school support your child? Mine suggests to get a shadow teacher. How much does a shadow teacher costs? School often conducts counselling sessions during curriculum hours, indirectly affecting the child and I could see that the teachers are not that happy with children returning after the sessions (kind of disrupting).

Child is offered a vacancy in another school. Wonder would changing a school environment be better for the child. Child is in the top class in the current school.
