Madelyn Grace was born August 18th at 11:15pm. She was 7lbs 6oz and 19 1/2 inches long. She is absolutly perfect. :D

She was a week late and after 40 hours of labor I ended up having to have a c-section. She really didn't want to come. ;) But recovery is going great and she is the love of our life! The only problem I had was getting a gluten-free meal from the hosptial. I had to send back my meals and it would take a couple hours to get the right one brought to me. My last meal they called and asked what I wanted so it was gluten-free but I was ready to go home by the time it came.

Her face looks perfect! What a beauty!

What a beautiful happy little girl! Many best wishes for you both. When I read about people having a baby I always get choked up and reflect on the day my daughter was born, almost 14 years ago. She has been the single most wonderful gift of my life. I'm sure your daughter will fill that niche for you! Enjoy, try and get some rest and accept offers of help!

Thanks! Just wondering how you guys can see her. I tried to change my avatar to her picture but I still just see my dog. So does it work on everyone's computer but mine :unsure: I am just confused.

But thanks, we are so much in love with her that it is just crazy. Our ped. is setting us up with a ped. gastro. That way we know the best way to introduce wheat and the best time. Not to mention if she does end up with Celiac we will already have a dr. that we know. Of course I pray that she does not ever get Celiac and she has a strong tummy like her dad!

That happens to me sometimes too with the avatars, but I can see her just fine! She is so beautiful!

Congrats! She's a cutie!

Keep us posted on the guidance of the ped. gastro and when you end up introducing wheat etc. Hopefully your little girl won't have celiac, but if she does, I'm sure you can handle it.

PS: Cross your fingers for me please...we're trying to conceive!

Try hitting refresh on your computer if you can't see it. Usually I can see when someone changes it but if it doesn't once I hit refresh it has worked for me.

She's so cute :D

It would probably be from your cache--something that keeps certain aspects of a webpage stored for you so it's quicker to load. But it needs to update occasionally or else you'll see old information...usually it's pre-set to either search for a change whenever you visit the page, every so often, or never...etc. it should change soon enough or I'll tell you how to empty your cache and see all webpages updated again...

I can see her, though. She's wearing pink. Her right eye (left side of picture) is closed a little more than HER left, probably because her right hand is pushing the side of her cheek. Mouth wide open. Sorry for the play-by-play, but I wanted to prove that we can see it and we're not just pretending :lol:

She's beautiful Kayjay!! Congrats! How are you recovering from your C-section?Our little guy is due on Oct 15th, but apparently he's a little anxious to get out early. I have been on bedrest for 6 weeks for preterm labor. I have one week left of bedrest then we should be ok if he's born then. I can't wait to see him!

Hugs,

Twister

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
