Hello everyone,

I was just officially diagnosed today with a severe case of Celiac via a biopsy... I am 24 years old and I have miscarried 5 times, thankfully God blessed my husband and I with a miracle baby girl 15 months ago. We are ready to start trying for another but I am terrified of having a 6th miscarriage! I was wondering if anyone knows how long I should be gluten-free before trying to concieve?

I waited a year, my son is now 2 1/2 and I am pregnant now. I too had a series of miscarriages and this baby seems totally fine so far :)

I think you should wait until you are getting your nutrients. You should get your iron, ferritin, b12. d & calcium checked. I wouldn't try to get pregnant until those are normal.

I think I'd wait until a blood test and endoscopy came back clean.

I agree--get those nutrients up! Vitamin D, calcium, iron, and folic acid are essential to a baby's health. My mother's celiac was triggered when she had an appendectomy when she was five months' pregnant with me. I was born with Rickets--probably due to low levels of Vitamin D and calcium in my mother. I'm sure you wouldn't want this to happen to your baby.

Thank you all for the responces... It is upsetting that we will have to wait so long. But I do understand the importance of waiting. :(

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
