Newly Pg........anything New I Need To Know?

I am going on 5 weeks PG with my 9th PG. (4 living, 4 m/c's) I have had 3 m/c's in the past year and just found I am Celiac this past year so I am hoping that by going gluten-free that I can keep this PG! I don't know for a fact that Celiac cause my m/c's but it's a possibility. I am also on Prometrium so I am hoping that one or the other (or both!) will do the trick.

So, I am experienced in PG's but not in a Celiac PG. KWIM? Do any of you have some advice for a Celiac newbie? TIA!

congratulations on your pregnancy! i was dx'ed in February after two miscarriages, and a host of other medical problems so this pregnancy is a blessing! i'm currently 18 weeks.

first piece of advice: DON'T CHEAT!!! My cravings have been pretty intense for things like pizza and oatmeal cream pies (don't ask :lol: ) but I refuse to give in. Things like pizza are easy: make a gluten-free one. For the other things I've just had to find substitutes and they usually do the trick.

Also, take your vitamins. If you haven't had your nutrients levels checked, check them now and supplement for what you are lacking in. I saw a nutritionist for this part. Most doctors offices have nutritionists on staff who maybe a good resource for you but beware - a lot of them also don't know about celiac disease.

congrats again! i hope you have a healthy pregnancy!

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By Beverage · Posted

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
