Eat healthy, whole foods. Get plenty of vegetables, especially leafy green ones*. Stay gluten free, stay hydrated. I don't know that there's anything particularly special other than making sure that you are getting good nutrition, especially calcium, iron, vitamin C, and vitamin K.

*It's possible to take too much folic acid in multiple supplements during pregnancy, but natural sources do not have this problem.

To answer the title question, during my first trimester, I was relatively nauseous and didn't want to eat. I lived off eggs and avocado, for the most part. But healthy fats are good for the little one (and eggs also have lots of choline!).

I agree, lots of whole foods. I found out that I feel better (morning sickness wise) when I have good food in me. Lots of brown rice, quinoa, fresh meats and veggies, I love love love red bell peppers right now.

Good luck TTC!!! Sending you some of my baby dust!

That's true - my hypoglycemia was worse during pregnancy, so I had to be very careful about carbs. Just brown rice on it's own would make me feel icky. Additionally, getting PLENTY of protein can help reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia. (Not eliminate it, but it helps.)

Really! I got a lot of protein and I still ended up with it. Weird.

I just had red quinoa for lunch and it was AWESOME!

      High Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA after being gluten-free for 6 months

      By RMJ · Posted

      It can take longer than 6 months for antibodies to drop to the normal range,  My DGP IgA took a few years as I got stricter and stricter about being gluten free  But having symptoms again could also mean you’re getting some gluten in your diet.

      High Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA after being gluten-free for 6 months

      By TexasCeliacNewbie · Posted

      Hi, I just had my 6 month check after being diagnosed Celiac 6 months ago.  All of my panel numbers were normal except: Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA (It is 31 with high being over 30)  I have also been having symptoms again. Am I not actually being as careful as I think I am or does it take longer than 6 months for this particular test to come back down?  I can't get ahold of my doctor this week as she is out.     Thank you!

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      That is very strange, because it looks to me like two very different test results, but for the same test! It's definitely time to contact your doctor for clarity on this.

      Scott, thank you SO MUCH for this!! She has been through so much in the last three years as we've tried to track down answers. This language will definitely help me help her to reframe.
