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.

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
