What's on your tot's plate?

This last week has been a bit different for us. Let me back up a bit. For the last 3.5 months or so, we've noticed that Nathan's urine has a pink tint to it. The peds office has done several urinalyses and found nothing. Just to be sure, they sent us to a local children's hospital to visit with a nephrologist. The nephrologist did another urinalysis, blood work, and a renal ultrasound. The blood came back great, ultrasound said all structures were perfect and no stones were present. The urinalysis came back with traces of blood and high amounts of calcium and sodium. So, our next step was to visit the dietitian. We listed out a few days of Nathan's meals for her to look over and what she found is that Nathan doesn't eat a huge amount of calcium (he's not a big fan of yogurt any more, he's barely eating cheese (unless on pizza), he hates mac and cheese, and he doesn't drink a huge amount of milk). She also found that his sodium intake was well within the normal limits for a toddler. Still, we're trying a new diet for a month to see if it makes any difference in the urine output. Nathan is allowed to have 500 mg of calcium and 1000mg of sodium in a day. Doesn't sound like a crazy restriction right? Until you realize that 8 ounces of milk has 300 mg of calcium and everything gerber makes is calcium fortified, as are most things that come in a box. Sodium... crazy. I thought Nathan ate very little sodium until his amount was limited to 1000mg a day. It's a very difficult diet, but it's doable with some planning and help from friends. So, without further ado, I give you three of Nathan's reduced calcium/sodium plates from this week. :)

Raw carrots and snap peas, 1T of hummus, 1/8 cup of Dietz and Watson sodium free turkey, the rest of his hard boiled egg from earlier, no salt added green beans, squash, 2.5 honey battered tyson chicken nuggets, a few pieces of watermelon and some grapes.

The biggest struggle for us is breakfast because Nathan can't have most all breads including waffles, french toast, etc. The healthier the food it seems the more sodium and calcium. So this particular morning, he had 1/4 cup of soy yogurt, some earth's best banana blocks, and a 1/2 cup of blueberries.
Another morning, he had 1/2 cup of raspberries, FAGE greek yogurt with honey added, and a few pieces of this mini sourdough bread.

Yummy! Do you have any other suggestions for low sodium low calcium foods? What's on your tot's plate? Please share it with us by linking up your post here...
