Oh the things we do for our children

Today Gabe had his one month check up. Has it been a month? Yes, apparently it has. I am happy to report that Gabe is doing awesome. He now weighs 10 lbs 1 ounce. He is in the 55% in everything (head circumference, weight, length). The pediatrician put him on his tummy and he rolled over (they're not supposed to do that for another three months). Gabe is amazing!
The only problem, well issue, is that Gabe may have an acid reflux problem. The pediatrician gave me some things to do to see if it helps before we need to put him on medication. Because I am breastfeeding, the pediatrician, wants me to go on a restricted diet to see if it helps. Um I am not to happy about this but I guess I have to for Gabe. Here is a list of the things I need to avoid:
1. Chocolate
2. Soda
3. Broccoli
4. Cauliflower
5. Onions
6. Radishes
7. Cabbage
8. Brussel Sprouts
9. Tomatoes/Tomato based foods
10. Nuts
11. Beans
12. Dairy Products
I eat everything on this list (except for number 6) regularly. No Chocolate? No Italian Food? No Pizza? No milk? No Ice Cream? I am going to die. I honestly have no idea what I am going to eat now. This better make me lose weight. I mean to give up ice cream? That is huge! My life is over. Just kidding but seriously this is going to suck. Any suggestions on what I should eat? I think I will be stuck eating salads for the next 11 months. I crave ice cream already. How am I going to survive without ice cream? Ug.

Fun fact about ice cream: The biggest ice cream sundae in history was made in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, in 1988, and weighed in at over 24 tons.
I will be dreaming of those 24 tons...mmmmmmmmmm.........
