Our usual battle with Otter's digestive tract has taken an unexpected turn. Perhaps our efforts to fiberize the baby were a little too thorough, or maybe the mythic lore about teething side effects is true, but the long and the short of it is that anything that goes into SB very quickly emerges out the other end.
Having spent months devising countermeasures for a different problem, I am completely at a loss as to how to tackle this present dilemma. The Internet and guide books (yes, all those things I scoffed at) provide little by way of uniform guidance. While some extol the virtues of the B.R.A.T. diet (bananas, rice, apples and toast), others maintain that piling on the fat and fiber is most effective. This latter approach seems completely counter-intuitive, so I am choosing to ignore the advice, scientific studies be damned.
What I've ultimately arrived at is the modified B.R.A.Y. menu - replacing toast with goat yogurt. All those Activia commercials advertising yogurts digestive benefits can't be wrong. So fingers crossed, noses plugged, I'm forging ahead. At least this completely texture-less diet is bound to live up to Otter's sophisticated palate.
