Pregnancy Complications More Common in Women with Celiac Disease

It's not clear whether the women with celiac had been following a gluten-free diet. In other words, were they "healthy" before becoming pregnant, or suffering from symptoms of untreated celiac disease?

I agree it would be helpful to know more about the gluten-free status of these women, and whether that has any impact on outcomes. I imagine women with celiac disease who follow a gluten-free diet would have similar rates of normal pregnancy as the non-celiac controls, but that's just a guess.

I would like someone to do research on Preeclampsia and toximia, I don't know if I have celiac disease but I am sensitive to gluten. I am also dairy, soy, corn and some other foods I am allergic to. When I had my children I did not know that I was sensitive or allergic, I was just sick my whole life and got preeclampsia. I wonder if foods cause this?

There's room for investigating if the dreaded nine-months morning sickness could also be attributed to coeliac disease, treated or otherwise. I was subsequently diagnosed with celiac disease, so was my sister and daughter who like me also suffered from the appalling long term morning sickness; we would have been in good company with the Duchess of Cambridge, but it would've been no consolation at the time.

I had symptoms of celiac ever since I was 9 but didn't know what it was until I was 68. I had toxemia when I was 7 months pregnant and lost that baby. The baby weighed 2 pounds. The second baby was also stillborn, they thought I could deliver it the normal way, but I couldn't, they had to do a C-section, he was 3 pounds when I was 7 months. The 3rd baby was 4 pounds at 8 months, and lived. I think all my babies were small because they weren't getting enough nourishment because of being celiac.

I was diagnosed with Celiac at age 62. I didn't know what it was, but from the time I had my first period at age 11.5, I ate like a line backer. I am 75 years old, 5'1" & weigh 117#. I ate more than my older sister who could look at food & gain weight. As a teen, I  would pack a large lunch & buy a hot lunch including 2 cartons of milk. I never gained an ounce.  I wore a size 3. At. 23 I had my 1st child two days before my due date & she weighed 8# 2.5 oz. I had very mild nausea  & it was gone by week 12.  I had a miscarriage 2 years later.  I got pregnant again & had a baby girl five days before my due date with a little  help from my doctor who thought I was gaining too much weight (40#). The baby weighed 8# 5oz.  At my 6 week checkup I weighed 105 & they said don't lose any more weight. I went back to my pre pregnancy weight of 97#.  I never tried to lose weight.  I also never tried to get pregnant. I had always tried not to get pregnant.   I wasn't nauseous. I had natural childbirth in 6 hours & 2 hours labor. I never fit the norm in anything.  People said I had a fast metabolism, because I could eat anything & never gain weight. 
I think I had Celiac since I was 11.  I never had any symptoms. At age 62, I was being treated for fibromyalgia & kept getting worse. My rheumatologist tested me for Celiac, Lupus & R/A. My celiac numbers were over 100. Thirteen years later my numbers are <2, but being gluten free, my digestive system isn't normal. All those years of consuming gluten must have damaged my gut. I also have Hashimotos and am otherwise in good health. No fibromyalgia & I still don't fit the norm.
