I'm pregnant! Only six weeks, but trying to not tell people was getting to be a pain (particularly since it has been affecting the yoga I can do, which affects what I can demonstrate when I teach!  ), so we've outed ourselves.
So far things are going fairly well. Mostly, I'm just tired, and feeling a bit constipated. (I'm not, it's just that feeling in that area.) No particular food aversions, aside from having no appetite. I'm sure that'll change in not too long.

Tiffany
Congratulations.
I couldn't be happier for you
I've known since we became friends 5+ years ago on the board that this was a dream.
So glad it's come true.

Congratulations! Much Happiness to You
Husband has Celiac Disease and
Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -
The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis
Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,
most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as
being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."
Serious Depressive state ensued
Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003
Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.
Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle
Developed neuropathy in 2005
Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003
