Adjusting from 3 to family of 4....would be too easy, right?

We are all doing good. Little Paxton is already changing and growing so much. He is starting to fill out and get a little chubby. Peyton is loving being big brother and is so helpful! I have pics to load and some catching up to do. Hopefully I will get to that soon. We are adjusting from being family of 3 to family of 4. If that isn't enough in and of itself we are in for a whole lifestyle change. Peyton has been treated for allergies and asthma for 2 years now. The medications don't seem to help him a whole lot. They are expensive and I am sure they all have their side effects. Some of which are obvious and Peyton doesn't like. We have taken him to pediatrician multiple times and expressed that we don't like keeping him on this med all the time, but they still continue to prescribe for each symptom. Making me feel like a "bad mom" if I don't give him the meds. We took him to an allergy and asthma specialist and found a couple things that could be causing the problems. We took all those things away and still coughing and stuffy noses all the time. So we recently decided to take him to a naturalpathic dr. to get to the cause. We were told to try taking him off all milk and wheat products for 6 weeks. We had already taken him off milk products a week before the visit and have seen slight improvement already. So have you ever read food labels? Milk and wheat (gluten) is in everything! We have had to clean out our cupboards and refill them. (It's not fair for us to eat the same as before and tell Peyton he can't have certain foods.) Shopping and cooking is completely different than it used to be and much more time consuming. It makes it really hard not to have a health food store where we live. Our options are limited. I am sure it will get easier, but WOW! I really hope this helps Peyton and we can get to the root of the problem. Most of all we hope that he will feel better! I would appreciate any info. anyone may have on the gluten- free/ dairy- free diet.
