Zac (Mr. Happy)

CURRENT TRIAL: nothing

We recently decided to throw caution to the wind and allow Zac to eat nearly anything he would like, as long as it is corn-free, cow milk-free, wheat-free, fructose light, salicylate light, grass-fed and organic. Doing that proved rice to be a safe food, and so far he has been fine with a wide variety of other foods. We may be at the point where the only things we have to avoid are known FPIES triggers, and can begin feeding him much as his brother. With shorter trial times, we can suss out what he can tolerate and what he cannot, but this is SO much easier than living full-time with FPIES!
