Day three isn't over yet, it's mid-afternoon, but I thought I would update.

We've not been perfect on the allergen avoidance, but we HAVE been perfect on the artificial food avoidance.

Yesterday Piper had an enormous tantrum, completely with screaming, kicking, wailing, and complete loss of control. It lasted about 30 minutes, and was kicked off when I told the girls it was time to turn off the tv and come to lunch. It accelerated when I offered my hand to walk her downstairs (Chloe had the other hand to steady herself on the stairs), and she refused to take it, and so I went on down the stairs without her.

I have to remember that it does take two full weeks to clear ones system of food offenders... but she also had some applesauce, which is likely to be high in salicylates, which the Feingold program had warned could be a potentiate of behavioral problems. So now I'm studying more on that, and trying to steer her clear of those foods high in salicylates as well - though buzzing through the lists, that might be hard to do - there are a LOT of them.

Today has been amazing. No whining at all, no fussing, even when she's been disappointed. She and Phoebe are getting along very well, and are currently playing pretend while Chloe goes with Phil to the bike shop.

Which reminds me, I need to go update her food diary.
