I was so worried I was too old ( i will turn 39 in 2 weeks) or that I was so damaged from all of these problems. I am 6 days late..and it only took about 15 seconds for that result with a middle of the day ..sample.. haha

 

TADAA!!!!

WOW!  congratulations!!!  i guess this gluten free stuff must be working!!  lololz :D

Gemini Experienced

So...I take it that being gluten free is NOT a reliable form of birth control???????  ^_^

 

Congratulations on your little gluten free bun in the oven and I wish you the easiest of pregnancies!  :)

How sweet. I must be emotional cause im crying tears of joy!

MycasMommy Enthusiast

Awww, thank you all for the real heartfelts! 

 

I hope it is the easiest of easiest! With my first and only (so far), 18 years ago, I was REALLY sick...and I knew I was prego from probably the 1st week.  This time, I still do not even FEEL pregnant.... except for all of the sudden I have to pee a lot LOL

 

I cried too... I still am. I am basically awed... I thought it would be so much harder. I thought it may never happen.  I am actually scared to pieces something will go wrong, or there will be a miscarry, or bad news on the genetic testing front....

 

I got myself scheduled and they were really great about it.  I mean they are seeing me FAST!.  First appointment is this Saturday!

do not borrow trouble!   this is your little miracle :)  you are gluten-free, (the way your body 'runs' correctly) so this pregnancy should be a walk in the park  ;)  worry = stress <no no no!

badcasper Explorer

my three pregnancys were so hard on me that I was sure I could never handle another one. migraines for the first four months and sick. this was before I knew anything about gluten. I would think you would have a much healthier and easier pregnancy and healthy happy baby now that you are gluten free. best wishes mom

MycasMommy Enthusiast

Yep.. I am 5 weeks (that means the fetus is 3 weeks, i think).  I am already insanely tired.  I was never this tired with my daughter. Its like my soul is being sucked out kind of tired.  Maybe it is because I am almost 39.  I have already started with the sickness too :S  Just lunchtime (during work! GAH)  So I have some ginger mints to nibble on discreetly. Everything feels quadruple what it was back when I was prego 18 years ago. I am seriously worried there is more than one baking in there... That would thrill some people, but no..not me.. Hopefully... I am just old and feeling it harder hahahaha The Doc gae me an Rx for phenergan(sp?) for the nausea. I am going to have to figure out a new cooking for the week routine. I am gone 10 hours a day w/ work and I am TOOOOOO Exhausted to do ANYTHING the rest of the time. please please please let there only be one in there!!!

Crockpot? Teen daughter or hub/ BF cook? Sandwiches and fruit and carrot sticks can be a balance meal.

MycasMommy Enthusiast

The crock pot requires morning energy.  I have zero.  I am talking walking zombie haha ..its almost comical. They are "grown adults" for all intents and purposes and I trust they will not let themselves starve. They know all the kitchen rules about gluten and grains so I am not worried if they cook for me. I will have to let them get desperate first though bahahahhaha  As long as I take my vitamins, I am pretty sure I have enough weight on me to handle not eating enough calories here and there. That is probably faulty thinking but it is late and Morpheus is now in charge!

LauraTX Rising Star

Do you have enough morning energy or a kid willing to have it prepped night before, covered with plastic wrap in fridge, pull off wrap and throw it on in the AM?  I will have my husband do that sometimes if I am gone from the house all day for something.  However I totally agree with you that if you stop cooking they will have to start! LOL.... maybe give them some crock pot recipes to to themselves, some are super duper easy.  Heck, throw some chicken thighs, carrots, peppers etc and that teriyaki sauce in there.  Boom done! :)  But yes maybe let them get desperate first :D

Congratulations!!  You know from experience that the first trimester is the worst for fatigue, so permit yourself to rest as much as you can!

MycasMommy Enthusiast

Thank you! :D

 

Yeah, there is no "permit" going on. There is only.. OMG! I CANNOT LIFT MY FEET UP TO WALK! I wake up, go to work... somehow survive the day and then I walk in the door and it is all over. Thankfully, my teenager cleaned the house while I was gone yesterday. I hugged her so much and I even cried a little. I was dreading coming home to the mess and there was nothing I could do about it! LOL I was never this tired when I was pregnant in my 20's with her. This is something new for me!

 Yeah, I think I need to give the recipe directions for the crock pot.... yeah... There is no morning energy hahah nor any at night. geezz I hope this passes soon. The SO works and goes to school, and so does the teen.... but.. I need their help right now! DEsperation is the key *nods* yep yep

      @Gigi2025  Thank you for your interesting post.  Some of what you say chimes with something my gastroenterologist tells me - that he has clients who travel to France and find the same as you  - they will eat normal wheat baguette there without issue, for example.  His theory was he thought it might be to do with the locally sourced wheat being different to our own in the UK? But I have to say my own experience has been quite different. I have been to France twice since my diagnosis, and have been quite ill due to what was then (pre-2019)  poor labelling and cross-contamination issues.  My TTG test following my last visit was elevated - 'proof of the pudding', as we say in the UK!  It was not just a case of eating something like, say, shellfish, that disagreed with me - gluten was clearly an issue. I've also been to Italy to visit family a couple of times since my diagnosis.  I did not want to take any chances so kept to my gluten free diet, but whilst there what I did notice is that coeliacs are very well catered for in Italy, and many brands with the same ingredients in the UK are clearly marked on the front of their packaging that they are 'senza glutine'.  In the UK, you would have to find that information in the small print - or it puts people off buying it, so I am told!  So it seems to me the Italians are very coeliac aware - in fact, all children are, I believe, screened for coeliac disease at the age of 6.  That must mean, I guess, that many Italian coeliacs are actively avoiding gluten because, presumably, if they don't, they will fall ill?

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.

      Hello, @ElisaAllergiesgluten, Have you tried going on a low histamine Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol diet?  A low histamine AIP diet would help your body rid itself of the extra histamine it's making in response to allergies.  Are you Celiac as well?   Since we need more thiamine when we're stressed, adding Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine Vitamin B 1, can help the body calm down it's release of histamine.  Benfotiamine improves Sailors' asthma.

      Don't skimp on the gluten daily while undergoing the gluten challenge!
