This is an old post, but I was wondering if there was a correlation. I was just diagnosed with celiac disease. My son, born 3 years ago, had a CMPA and I had to avoid dairy while nursing him. He has since outgrown his milk allergy. I suspect that in my case celiac disease was triggered by this pregnancy.

I am a pediatrician and I take care of predominantly newborn infants. I have been seeing more and more infants with cow's milk protein allergies/intolerances over the last 5 years than in the past. I am interested in this diagnosis because two of my four kids had issues with milk protein as infants (before I was diagnosed and gluten free). I have been unable to find any research linking cow's milk protein problems in babies with maternal celiac disease. I suspect that the 2 problems are linked and am considering doing a research study on this. In my case, my babies reacted to milk protein which passed into my breastmilk. Have any of you mothers on here had babies who do not tolerate cow's milk protein? Please message me if you can. If there are enough of us, then it will tip me toward trying to examine this scientifically.
