her belly measured round the belly button pre gluten free 56cm , after gluten free 44 cm

I'll try and figure out how to post pictures because the pictures say it all

her weight is kind of up and down but she has some nerve issues in her bowel, and she has a few food phobias just now, she feels better and is scared everything is going to hurt her

My son was 23.8lbs at 28 months and wearing 18m shirts 24m pants (fully tightened adjustable waist band). After gluten free for 1 month he is visibly taller and "thicker". He has not been weighed yet since going Gluten Free January 6 2012. His belly isn't swollen and hanging out. He's is becoming much proportionate. HUGE DIFFERENCE!

my son was

16.8 lbs at 6 months also he was 28 inches

16 lbs at 9 months and still 28 inches

16 lbs at 13 months and still 28 inches

at that point the doctors finally took me seriously. We had a positive celiac blood test and and chose not to do the scope.

We went gluten free-he gained quickly and grew about an inch in a month I dont remember the exact weight number though.

by 2 years old he was 32 lbs and now at 3.5 he is 38 lbs.

I have a 4 year old boy that weighs 26# and a 2 year old girl that weighs 23#. My daughter has never had gluten, our household was gluten-free when she was born. My son (the 4 year old) was diagnosed at 16 months and has yet to get on the growth chart. He wears 2T clothing for the most part, jeans are usually short. If I can find 3T jeans with an adjustable waistband, it has to be pulled all the way in.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
