Nathaniel Scott made a VERY unexpected early arrival on June 15 at 7:10pm. He was 8 weeks premature!! He was 2 lb and 12 oz but a whopping 17" long!!

He's doing very well in the NICU - breathing on his own and being a truly feisty little trooper! Looks like he will stay with them until close to his original due date. I was finally able to come home from the hospital yesterday and can now hustle up and get the house ready for our little cherub when he is able to safely come home.

I'm so proud of my little fighter! What an amazing experience!

Update:

Six weeks later, Nathaniel is doing beautifully! He is almost 5lb and it seems like he will be home from NICU within the next 10 days.

He struggled a bit with food --- they were fortifying it to give him more calories and he had a bad reaction to the fortifier (need to remember to check the ingredients on that....), but once they stopped adding it, he bounced back.

He will come home on an apnea monitor (sometimes he just plain forgets to breathe), a few medications, and supplements for his anemia, but overall he is growing, gaining weight, and getting cuter by the day! We cannot wait to get him home!

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
