Milk ?

I know this isn't dealing with gluten-free but I know a lot of you have kiddos that can't tolerate milk so I wanted to see what you think about this.

Maddie was milk intolerant as an infant but seemed to do fine on lactose free milk now she is a year.

So for the last month that is what she has been drinking. Well about two weeks ago she started getting a runny nose and has had very runny leaky dirty diapers. (She only has those once maybe twice a day) At first I thought it was all caused from her immunizations but it just doesn't seem to be letting up at all. She has a slight fever too and has been extremely fussy the last few days.

How can I tell if it is caused from the milk or teething or immunizations? How long to we "wait" it out? Do these symptoms seem like they could be some sort of allergy?

Thanks for your help?

If you really want a true idea of whether this is caused by milk, the best thing to do is to take all dairy out of the picture for 3-5 days. Then re-introduce for one day and wait to see if the symptoms come back (give 2-3 days for reactions to occur). This includes all milk-derived ingredients so it probably will be a bit of a challenge, but usually the difference is pretty noticable if dairy is an issue.

Keep in mind that the symptoms you observed in your dd may not be the same as they are now. With my dd, any amount of dairy will cause night waking and hyperactivity....followed by one episode of loose stool which is usually yellowish in color. Stools are a great indicator of what's going on at times. Keep an eye out for any kind of changes.

Yea, I agree. The only way to know is to go dairy free for a bit.

She could have a cold/virus/etc, or could be somthing else. Two weeks is a bit long for a cold/virus but not all that unusal.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
