Tolerating Child's Cranky/whiny/irritable Behavior?


divamomma

Recommended Posts

We are still waiting for a scope and biopsy. Longest 2 weeks ever and I am sure we have more to wait. My 4 year old is constatly whiny, irritable, ugging her sister etc. I am sure most of it is due to not feeling well. Any advice on how to tolerate this? I know I should have more patience but this behavior is awful. It is also hard to tell my older daughter to ignore her sisters behavior or excuse it. I am also stressed and worried about my daughter and perhaps loosing my cool faster than I should. Any advice?? I so badly wish we could move forward with a gluten free diet.

That's tough! I recommend a time out, for Mom.

Can you and Dad take turns with cranky one? Maybe there is a grandma or friend that could give you a break?

I would try to keep the kids apart with separate activities and areas of the house if possible.

Hang in there!

I have this issue. My daughter is actually now gluten free, dairy free and corn free. Corn especially just makes her CRAZY. I always feel bad when my husband harshly disciplines her during these crazy episodes because I personally know how food can make you feel insane. Not just pain management but really really out of your mind. So I try and make sure she keeps calm and holds it together when we have "accidents" because when she is eating properly her behavior really is lovely. I hope your daughter is able to go on her diet quickly and you see some positive changes.

We had that problem with my son. My husband wanted to punish him severely, but nothing much worked until we got him off gluten. I really didn't think that he could help it. Now it only happens when he gets gluten by accident. It drives me crazy then, but at least I know that it will go away soon. Hang on to that thought.

Hang in there! I agree with trying to find someone who can spell you, so you can get a break.

I ended up caving in on the whole endo thing. My daughter is having hers on December 29th. However, I did tell the GI that I was not going to keep feeding her gluten between now and then after her last painful episode. She felt that she would still find the damage in two weeks, so she agreed.

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
