: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

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
