Hi there. Well, I've been a "lurker" for about 3 yrs. now and I have just decided to finally log into and join.

I am 8 wks. preggie with my 3rd. This is my first preg. since diagnosed with celiac disease. I am due Aug. 20th. I am in the very tired stage and for the last week and a half, I had felt queezy all day. I thought to try something. I haven't taken my pre natal vits. for 2 days now and all the nausea is gone. They were GNC gluten-free vits. Does anyone have another they reccomend? I don't want to buy any off the internet, so is there one in a store or pharmacy? How about walmart brand? I hate being off them, but I feel much better.

Also, what kinds of menues or dishes do you eat now that your preg? Before, I would not be so gluten-free consious. But now, I'm paranoid that I will have something with gluten in it. Can anyone give me some ideas. Right now I can't get enough salt!!!! I love freetos!!!

Thanks for any advise that comes my way. Good luck to all and bye for now!

I craved salt also when I was pregnant. The OBGYN told me that as long as my blood pressure was okay not to worry about it. Check with yours and hopefully he will say the same.

Try some b-complex for the nausea and fatigue. They worked wonders for me with my four pregancies (3 live births).

I know that Perrigo labs are gluten free. They are distributed as store brands through Kroger, Wal-mart, and Target that I know of. Their logo looks like a rounded rectangle with a comma hook off the right side. Since I know that their lab is gluten-free, those are the only OTC meds that we use around here.

Hi deener

Glad to have you here.

I do know that when my daughter was pg, the prenatal vit made her sick all the time. So the doc told her to try flintstones. ;)

Check and make sure they are gluten-free first of course :)

Thank you ladies :D I will definately be on the lookout. I am also waiting for my GI DR. to call me back with a list of perscription. But it would be great if I could get some that aren't so exspensive!!

Bye for now :P

      as my last post stated, i was diagnosed via endoscopy on the 14th of june. i have been eating amazing home cooked meals, luckily, mainly cooked by my boyfriend who is extremely careful about contamination (and is an incredible cook at that). however, i find myself in a mental rut still. being 18, this is the time in my life where i should be exploring things, going out, having fun. yet every corner i turn i'm tortured by the amazing smell of something i can't have anymore. the wonderful sight of such yummy foods. it's near torture. if my boyfriend and his friend who lives with us buy something i can't have, they'll usually eat it outside of the house or the car or wherever we are - which is greatly appreciated - but even seeing a burger or chips or a sausage roll in their hands guts me almost beyond repair. i just wanna have it again too. i miss it. i feel left out and it makes me very sad all the time. it's not their fault. they are allowed to eat whatever they want to, whatever their intestines will allow. it just stings, bad. and i feel so ungrateful given i basically have a private chef who is doubly the love of my life. but it's just so hard. i know i'll adapt. i haven't given up hope.i just wanted to vent. thank you for reading

      Thank you. I must have misinterpreted a study or something. Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Almost three years into my celiac diagnosis and I'm still learning new things.

      I wasn’t clear, glucagon and gadolinium were intravenous. I drank about 5 cups of the prep during 45 minutes. I feel very tired now, probably partly because I was nervous, and partly because I had to fast for 6 hours beforehand and wasn’t very hungry when I got home.

      That seems at lot of solution to have put threw you when you already have bowel issues , I will phone them tomorrow because it's sorbitol I have reactions too, thankyou for the input how do you feel now ? I'm not sure I can keep still for that long with my back issues either unfortunately I didn't know it could take that long 😕

      The solution I had to drink contained sorbitol and mannitol. I was in the MRI, lying on my back, for about 40 minutes. I was given glucagon partway through, and a gadolinium contrast agent. After I got home there was some diarrhea from the prep solution.
