ok i have spots. i asked my ob about them and he said not to worry (i think that's his motto) that they are due to pregnancy hormones. he say they will go away after the baby is born. well i have never heard of this, or seen it. so i was wondering if any of you have?

they start of like a red pin point then they get brighter red and bigger. they are on my chest/collar bone area, and all over my arms. and more and more keep coming :huh: they dont itch nd most are not raised (only the ones on my collar bones and just barely). they are bugging me since i dont know what they are!!!

Do you use gluten free skin care products? Shortly after I started the gluten free diet I started to get these tiny red bumps (almost like pimples, but I couldn't feel them). When I switched to gluten free skincare products they went away. Lame Advertisement's Intelligence line is gluten free except for the face wash and mask. But you can use the cleansing gel on your face.

i think i have. i must say though i am not as careful as i am with food. i will read labels, but if i see on a board that something is safe i just belive it. i should probably go through everything in my bathroom again... uhhg!

Could be PUPPP. I had it but only on my arms. Didn't hurt or itch but was unsightly. I had a summer baby and was living on Cape Cod so long sleeves weren't an option.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
