Aversion To Gluten-Free Bread Since Pregnancy

Hello,

maybe someone experienced the same thing. Since I am pregnant, I can't stand one single of the gluten free breads offered on the market. I guess I just find yeast or eggs disgusting at the moment, or sugar where it doesn't belong to.

I admit I've always found gluten-free bread a difficult issue - back in Germany as well as here in Toronto. Sometimes I imagine the German pumpernickel style bread would work for me now, but who knows. You don

Omg I couldn't stand anything sweet the first trimester. I made biscuits and almost vomited at the first bite...they tasted sweet (1tbsp. sugar).

It passed....

The only think sweet I wanted (and craved) was apples.

Couldn't stand coffee, milk, bacon.... The only thing that stuck the full pregnancy was milk. Fat free was tolerable, but barely if it was ice cold.

I just avoided stuff I didn't like in the beginning. There's plenty of good stuff to replace it with.... I loved tortillas and frozen (fry them at home) lumpia. Now I'd have to make my own with rice paper but hey, preggo women will do ANYTHING to fix a craving!

Lumpia seems to be an excellent idea! (I didn't know this name till now, to be honest!)

Thank you!

Have fun making them. I'm horrible at rolling them.

I had very few food cravings when pregnant. Never to the point where I would have to run out and buy something. But once in a while I would eat something that I bought for my husband that I wouldn't normally eat. I did have aversions though.

Gluten isn't an issue for me but it is for my daughter. I do have medical problems that can leave me sick to my stomach though. We find that white rice works wonders. I make a pot of it every week and keep the leftovers in the fridge. I also keep some pre-cooked packets in the cupboard for a really quick meal. Daughter likes them mixed with canned chicken.

Daughter also likes gluten-free pretzels, rice cakes and occasionaly crackers.

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
