ds doing challenge on Wed

[booandbrimom]

Good for you, MFA, for getting through it, and him for having the courage to try. What wonderful news!

[Macabre]

So what has he eaten/done so far? 

[Mfamom]

mostly non peanut stuff that he couldn't have before like M&Ms, chocolate pretzels, kit kat etc.  I want him to eat some additional  pb stuff just for peace of mind.  was thinking something like little debbie bar where the pb isn't "thick" or somthing with chopped/whole pn. 

[Mookie86]

Does current thinking remain that he needs to eat PN regularly so his body doesn't forget that it's ok, or has that school of thought changed?

Congrats!!!  That Is Great News!!!

So, while you're getting him all that peanut stuff, don't forget this for you:

the dr didn't give us a specific direction about continuing to eat pb.  I don't want to push him.  he doesn't like it and I want to give him some time to settle down...that was really emotionally hard for him.  I bought little debbie pb wafer things. 
I've never LOVED pb or peanuts, but I always liked those.  Not so thick and strong.  I made white chocolate chip cookies yesterday. 
I think I would feel better if he ate something peanut butter again soon and weekly just for reality check.
Adding:  my name is total overkill at this point.  When I started with this group, ds was 4, we had shellfish, egg, soy, peanut, strawberry, tree nut, later added oas.  Now we're down to OAS and strawberries (I think tree nuts off list too).

I am just so happy for both of you.

I was thinking about you last night....wondering if you were watching the game.  Food is such a BIG part of the Super Bowl, so. I wondered if you got to have some new food this year.

[Mfamom]

No nothing new, I guess I did use toll house white chocolate for cookies

so, we're doing great since the challenge.  DS still won't eat straight up peanut butter.  I'm not sure how much to push this.  I would like him to eat it sometimes just so I know for sure we aren't going to have any problems!!

He also hasn't eaten tree nuts and he has negative tests for them.  I'm not sure if i should just have him do a challenge at home (to make him more comfortable) or call the dr.
