Comments:
Today is the first day I've felt like I'm having a die-off reaction. I woke up with a headache and felt nauseous. Had a couple trips to the loo for downstairs digestive disturbances. I feel like crap.
I haven't been feeding us much in the way of probiotics and wasn't planning on really starting them until we had gone through intro. We've been having the odd Bubbies pickle, but yesterday we had a little sauerkraut. Could that be it? Or is my gut finally noticing it hasn't been getting any starch or grains?
