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!  :)

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!

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

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.

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!

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!

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!

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
