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!

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease.

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it? I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant react...

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
