We've only been gluten free for about three weeks, already its made a remarkable improvement on my 2 year old. He's already started to put weight back on, thank god for that Gluten free pantry sandwich bread. Then i started wondering, after reading some posts, what about his shampoo, baby wash, etc. We use Johnsons baby wash now, the pink lotion stuff, and i have been using loreal kids shampoo for both kids. I know my son gets water in his mouth, half the time i think he drinks half the bath water, as disgusting as this sounds. I looked at the back of the bottle, but it is completely foriegn to me. Anyone know, have suggestions?

Baby Magic is good. The plain ol J&J stuff is good, but call if you have any doubts. I'm floundering in the bubble bath dept. too. Watch out for lotions too. Curel caused a major reaction in my daugher that took a while to figure out. Now using Lubriderm. Glad he's doing better!

I like the baby magic brand for soap. As far as lotion, we use Suave, it's gluten free and works pretty good.

My girls are starting to get to where we can use "real shampoo" so I am letting them use my Dove.

Ivory (last I checked) is gluten free if you are looking for a bar soap (my kids like to wrap it in a washcloth and make bubbles)

Oh, and I just started this thred here for you, and others in case you needed more info.

The last time I checked (about a year ago):

Johnson and Johnson- all the liquid soaps and shampoo were ok; also the hair detangler is ok

Baby Magic- all the liquid soaps and sunscreens

Loreal shampoos- ok

Suave for Kids Shampoo- ok

Kan-doo- all are ok

Also, I just checked all the baby wipes this week and Pampers, Huggies, and Equate (Walmart) were ok.

Most of the kid products companies, like Johnson and Johnson, are good about answering your questions.

I would recommend California Baby, too. I was using the shampoo and bodywash myself for a while! I still use the Sensitive Skin Lotion and sunscreen. Good stuff :)

we use Suave kids shampoo and Kiss My Face Olive and Aloe lotion, she likes Irish Springs bar soap and dial liquid soap... she doesn't like bubble bath so I don't have that issue.

I like CA Baby, Aubrey Organics and BeanTreeSoap

There are so many good ones in the health market these days!

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:

      Many of us with celiac find that the fillers in medications can cause a reaction, and sometimes our bodies just process things weirdly. That "rebound muscle pain" and "burning feet" you described sounds awful and is a huge red flag. It's frustrating enough managing the diet without medication causing setbacks. So sorry you're dealing with this, but you're definitely on the right track by connecting the dots. You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      It's so tough when you're doing everything right and still get hit with it. I'm glad you're figuring out a system that works for you—the peppermint tea and rehydration powders are smart moves. It sounds like you've really learned to listen to your body, and that's half the battle. Sticking to simple, safe food at home is the best way to build yourself back up. It's great you can take the time to rest properly. Thanks for sharing what works; it's a big help to others figuring this out too. This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's bad enough to fight for a diagnosis and manage this disease, but to have your partner use it as a weapon against you is truly devastating. What you're describing isn't just a lack of support; it's abuse, full stop. Controlling your food and money is cruel, and his pleasure in your misery is chilling. Please hear this: the kindness from that woman at the food pantry is what you deserve. It's a glimpse of the real world, where people care. You deserve to eat, to heal, and to have peace. His actions are the biggest barrier to your health right now, and you are not broken—you are surviving in an impossible situation. Don't give up on that lifeline you've found.

      Thank you.. Christina My anxiety is through the roof.  I think it was from eggs.  I really don't know because my eyes feel sore. Like I'm allergic to them.  I was defient in B12.   My heart is pounding and it won't stop.  Not sure what to do.   I don't have much support other than this forum.    Colleen
