I am A+, as is my ex-husband... so imagine my surprise when my middle daughter, who is also a celiac, told me she is O+?

Two A+'s don't necessarily add up to all A+ kids.

that confused me, until I found this.... Open Original Shared Link

which when you scroll down and put A for both parents then the thing says you can get A, or O

so, I believe you LOL (not that I didn't but since hubby and I are both O it was explained that our kids had to be, but I guess that's different for different blood types and didn't know until today. Our kids could have been O+ or O- but ended up + which is kinda cool in some ways and kinda uncool in others)

What I find interesting is that,

I am A-negative and my husband is O-negative. I just had a baby in Dec. and she is A+

...Two negatives made a positive.... I guess anything is possible!

I had to get two shots after birth because a lot of my baby's blood entered into my blood.

I am A- negative. I know most of the world is positive (RH factor).

Just curious to see how many others that are celiacs are a negative RH factor.

A-negative also.

:rolleyes: barrilla, this is a bit differnt than your question but I read somewhere that most celiacs are O's.

with adding myself as O blood type the posts add up to 11 0's and 6 A's and B's, so this is around 1/2. Have a good day all, evie

I am B+.

The most common blood type is O, followed by A, B then AB. Positive being more common than Neg.

So if most celiacs are O, its probably only because O is the most common blood type.

Hi Ladies,

I have been wheat/Gluten/corn/soy/dairy free since 2/22/06, due to being so ill for

several months. Including a B12 deficiency. Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 95' when

they couldn't prove that I had the Ankylosing Spondylitis I had been being treated for

since the age of 14! Ok, here is the thing. I went off all this stuff after seeing a

nutritionist who counsels on Blood Type Diets, helping people with chronic diseases and to

lose weight, also. I am an A+, 40 yo, and just had 1st pregnancy 2yr ago. Everything

got much worse after that event. I wonder if I have had it all along and it was triggered

by the pregnancy. I nursed for 20 months and it got much worse when I stopped.

Today, I had oatmeal and about 90 mins later thought I was dying. That I was supposed to

be able to have?! So, looking for a "what should I do next" Tests? Advice? Where does

Gluten hide?

Thanks in advance to all,

Trish in Bullville, NY

Two A+'s don't necessarily add up to all A+ kids.

YeP.. because "A" is often AO and "B" is often BO so you realy have...(stetching my memory back to bilogy class...)

AA (called A)

AB (Called AB)

AO (Called A)

BO (Called B )

BB (called B )

OO (Called O)

So a father with AO and mother with AO could easily have a child with O

BTW I am O+ , Red Cross constantly after me to donate! :)

AB+ here

I just started thinking....I've heard of diets based on your blood type? Does anyone know anything about this? I'm wondering if the things we're allergic or intolerant to could be similar for other people with the same blood type???? Your thought anyone???

If I did the diet for my blood type it would kill me. My type has wheat as a main grain.

O neg for me. this blood type diet is mainly proteins such as meat. I believe o has been around since the beginning of time so we are meat eaters..... That's about the only thing that seems correct within my body---no grains...everything else doesn't ever add up for me!!!!!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
