    I was on prenatals before the celiac diagnosis but then took a while off while finding one that was gluten free. I just started taking a prenatal that is gluten free a couple weeks ago (it is a 4 a day with over 100%dv on most essentaial nutrients) NOW brand from a local health/natural pharmacy. I am also looking into calcium and vitamin d suppliments...

    I was just diagnones with celiac about a month ago (some of you may have seen my other post about pregnany triggering celiac, in my case it did). I am currently breastfeeding my 6 1/2 month old son. I don't have supply issues at all, he eats well and is gaining weight well. I enjoy breastfeeding and it is really going well for both of us. I have lost...

    I'm 32 and just got a bone density test and have osteopenia as well. This is so disconcerning! They rated me at -1.4, (-1.0--2.4 is considered osteopenia levels). I have to meet with a rhumatologist to go over the results in 3 weeks. Is there anything I should tell them, about having Celiac? My general practitioner wants me to go on Fosomax- I'm...

    Try not to worry. When I was pregnant with my son, I did not throw up once the entire pregnancy. I barely had any nausea at all- symptoms can vary so much! Hopefully you will be one of the lucky ones with barely any morning sickness!! Congrats on your BFP!!! Happy and helthy 9mos to you!

    Well, I finally had my appointment with a GI doc today and got an offical diagnosis, yes, it is Celiac. My nombers came back at- IGG-27.2, IGA 30.1. I've been eating gluten free for over a month now and fell great most of the time. I guess I should be happy that I know what is going on, but oh, how I will miss some foods! The GI doc recommended getting...

    I just had my first baby 4 1/2 months ago and started having symptoms of Celiac Disease when he was about 3 months. I've been fine most of my life. (From the time I was 1 1/2 years old until I was 3 my parents had me on a gluten free diet. They thought it was caused/triggered by a bad fall I had causing the lining of my intestines to slough off.) From...

    I got my blood test result in- they say it is "equivocal" on my giliadan antibodies test. My number is 27.2 (negative is >25, equivical range is 25.1-49.9 my dr says). So do I have it? How accurate would this one test be? They are scheduling me an appointment with a GI sometime soon. For now I will just keep eating gluten free I guess.

    Please help me, do you think I may have Celiac Disease? For the past 4 weeks (I know it's not a very long time) I've been having digestive problems (Diarrhea, Constipation, bloating, gas, cramping etc.) It seemed to be every other day I would have a problem. I then started cutting things out of my diet, I determined that I don't have a problem with dairy...
