False negative pregnancy tests or faint positive

[Rykroeh0306]

Hi, 

my fiancé and I are trying to get pregnant I have had very faint positives. 
With my first pregnancy I was not diagnosed with celiacs

i was diagnosed about 2 years ago. I have severe reactions when I eat gluten I get a rash and I end up not being able to breathe as well as my entire body feels like it has been hit by a truck 

I am here to ask if any other woman have had false negatives after being diagnosed with celiacs or if they have had faint pregnancy tests and had a successful pregnancy and if so is this common with celiacs and how to go about handling it.

Please let me know

thank you

Hi Rykroeh

Welcome to the forum.

I hope someone will be able to help you with this, but in the meantime I have done a bit of reading about faint test results and I found this article which I think is helpful.

Sorry to not be of much help, but hopefully someone with experience of this sort of thing will chime in.

I've not heard of a relationship with a weak positive pregnancy test and celiac disease before, but there is definitely a link between miscarriages and untreated celiac disease, and you can read our articles that mention this here:

Yes... I heard this too.  Certainly a good (coeliac) friend of mine kept suffering miscarriages.  Once she was diagnosed, all her pregnancies went to term.  My neuro coeliac symptoms were only just becoming apparent when I had my first child and she was born ten days late; however, my second child was seven weeks premature.  I remember feeling very run down in that second pregnancy and didn't know why at the time, but I'm sure my undiagnosed coeliac disease had a part to pay in it.   It couldn't have helped that all I wanted to eat was iced Belgian buns!

I didnt have this issue, but w my last two kids, I had placental abruptions that were unexpected even with weekly ultra sounds. Apparently it’s more common with celiac and can be very scary based on each situation. One was worse than the other for me but I was lucky to make it to a good hopsital where ER surgeon, midwives and a full nicu team was there the entire time. The docs told me not to have a 4th as I was older and would be high risk by then as well.
