3 Healthy Baby Boys 5, 3 And 1

:rolleyes:

Everyone is different. I have had C.D. for over 10 years now and I am pretty healthy considering I have not stayed on my diet faithfully. I had three pretty normal pregnancies in which I was blessed with my little baseball team of boys.

One problem I had was Early Labor with all three. About 7 months into the pregnancies, I would go into labor. If there are any of you that would like details, I would be happy to share.

I have not tested my kids yet because they have been growing well and look wonderful.

Had no problems at all conceiving or being pregnant and I cheated on my diet alot during cravings. :unsure:

Maybe you should test the boys. My brother went through most of his life symptom-free but had Celiacs the whole time. It would have benifited him (and myself) to be diagnosed at an early age rather than the latter.

You had all three of them at 7 months? Maybe it's something unique about you.

;) you are so very blessed missingmybread---my sister and i both had difficult pregnancies--she lost her first baby at fullterm, her 2nd was born 6 wks early, the 3rd was 4 wks early-----my 1st was a normal pregnancy, but the other 4 were all difficult--i was sick most nights--the last 2 were the worst--and my last baby, my daughter, was born with a dislocated hip, or so we thought--during surgery they found that she had no hip socket on that one side and now, i realize it was probably because of the celiacs that she had that birth defect--i didnt gain anything when pregnant with her, i lost 40#----i know it wasnt my fault, but i still hurt for her cause she has had a life of pain with that hip and she always will---you are so blessed to have healthy babies--always remember that---deb

      Most people are already deficient in minerals.  I can understand the concern. However, if you do happen to get enough through supplementation, drinking pure distilled water is not going to matter.  I happen to get over 100% of rda vitamins and minerals.   I push myself to get 4000 mg of potassium a day through food, drinks, and supplements combined. I don’t know anyone else that does. The rda is closer to 4700 mg a day. For anyone else that might be deficient, I suppose tap water might be a better option.  I personally can’t stand the taste of most city tap water sources.  I don’t mind mineral water and prefer it when possible. I recently found out we would need to drink 5 liters of San Pellagrino mineral water a day to get enough lithium to satisfy the suggested 1 mg a day. Unfortunately, this and other mineral waters can also have trace amounts of uranium that occur naturally in nature. Uranium is not a good thing to have in your water. I wouldn’t want that or naturally occurring lead in my water.  There is no perfect solution for drinking water.  Smart water distills and then adds back in some electrolytes.  I could evaporate two gallons day of tap water or mineral water and the remaining sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc… wouldn’t amount to what I already consume on a daily basis. I’m not worried about drinking distilled water.

      Reverse osmosis water pulls electrolyte minerals out of the body.  If used for cooking, RO water will even pull even more electrolytes out of the food.  If you're not replacing electrolytes because you're eating food cooked with RO water, you can suffer from Electrolyte Imbalance.  The symptoms of Electrolyte Imbalance are similar to those that occur with being exposed to gluten.   Also consider that many people with Celiac disease have malabsorption issues and may already be low in electrolytes.  Exposure to RO water may create some health changes more quickly than in healthier individuals.   RO water impacts the body in many ways.  Read this fascinating study.   Long-Term Consumption of Purified Water Altered Amino Acid, Fatty Acid and Energy Metabolism in Livers of Rats https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11122726/ Drink mineral water.

      Library paste and paper mache.  I have in passing read of wheat based glue used to glue fish tank filters together so it is not surprising they might be in refridgerator filters. Seems the issue with bottled water would be at the personal filters rather than the mass filtering.  Just have to boycott the brands that effect you.  Gatorade drinks all have either gums, modified starches or stevia that might be affecting you.  Looking for energy or hydration try Red Bull.  It has the vitamins, minerals, antioxidant Taurine, sugar and glucose to process the sugar from mouth to ATP and clean up. Taurine is essential for protecting mitochondria from damage, such as from reactive oxygen species (ROS) or calcium overload. If you are exclusively drinking bottled water you may want to consider taking Lithium Orotate 5 mg.  We need about 1 mg a day of Lithium and mostly it is gotten from ground water.  Lithium deficiency can cause anxiety and suicide.  I find it helpful.

      What non organic or nonorganic molecules from a plastic bottle of water can trigger a reaction that I have only experienced during an auto immune experience? There really should not be any organic molecules in  such a bottle. I seen a thread where it was mentioned that his refrigerator water filter tested positive for gluten when he had it checked. If I went to physician to get checked for other possible triggers from a water bottle, I don’t think that will go anywhere. Again, distilled water containers cause no reactions. I’m not an industry expert, but something is there.  I don’t think that this is a case of microplastics causing this. Too bad we can’t call upon some third party investigation.

      It’s understandable to want to be cautious, especially after experiencing symptoms. However, there is currently no scientific evidence that reverse osmosis or standard activated carbon water filters expose people to gluten in amounts that would trigger celiac disease. Gluten is a protein, and if any starch-based binder were used in filter manufacturing, it would not pass through RO membranes or remain in finished bottled water at clinically meaningful levels. Plain water — filtered, RO, or bottled — does not contain gluten unless it is intentionally added (which would require labeling). Steam-distilled water is certainly safe, but it is not considered medically necessary for people with celiac disease. If reactions are occurring, it may be helpful to explore other potential explanations with a healthcare provider rather than assuming filter-related gluten exposure.
