Health And Beauty Aids For Kids...

Just wondering what you all use for your celiac kids.

 

Shampoo and conditioner

Body wash/soap

Lotion

Chapstick/Lip Goo - we are using eos and it's working ok (my oldest had "celiac lips" for years before DX and now I realize it's because our lip goo was just poisoning her over and over.  UGH!!)

 

We are going camping with the Girl Scouts soon and I'm going to need sunscreen and bug spray.

 

In the past we've always leaned toward the more natural ingredients, but I'm willing to push that aside, for now, while the girls still heal

 

Thanks.

We use Suave or Kirkland (Costco brand) shampoos and conditioners.  Dove soap (no body washes) and Cerave as a lotion.  Though J & J Baby lotion has a new "natural product" that lists all ingredients and their sources.  We use Eos too.  

 

Banana Boat is our favorite sunscreen.  I use the baby sunscreen for my face as it does not run into my eyes on bike rides.  

 

Haven't looked into bug spray.  We use whatever's at my parent's house and I make sure my husband and I wash our hands after applying.  No bugs where we live!  

 

We are Girl Scouts too!  Our troop does accommodate me (gluten-free) and a girl with peanut and milk allergies.  Not all troops are so careful as it depends on the leaders who are volunteers.  We have lots of fun camping!

      Pain in the right side of abdomen

      Just an update on my daughter. She is still in hospital and getting quite depressed about everything. She had a CT scan of head and chest to rule out stroke in view of her symptoms. Thankfully there is no evidence of that so they now want to do an MRI to rule out MS so this is freaking her out and it’s not doing me much good either!!!They’re also going to ...

      celiac disease and braces

      Your concerns are reasonable about the celiac risk aspect, and getting additional medical input is a good idea. Obviously I don't know the extent of your child's misalignment, but please don't think of it as just a cosmetic issue. Braces improve bite alignment and typically provide long term health benefits.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I watched my spouse go through shingles before the vaccine was available for "younger" people, so I got the vaccine as soon as I could. It really knocked me down too, especially the second dose. Even with that, if necessary I would take that vaccine every year to avoid getting shingles. Luckily it's a lifetime benefit though.

Thankfully there is no evidence of that so they now want to do an MRI to rule out MS so this is freaking her out and it’s not doing me much good either!!!They’re also going to do further blood tests to check vitamin levels. My husband and I are trying to reassure her the best we can that hopefully it’s just her body’s reaction to having the Vitamin B medication and it’s affecting her nervous system etc. Think the tingling has subsided but still having some lower back and pelvic pain and some leg pain. Thanks for reading and my apologies if I sound paranoid.
