    So emmah had her first*small* lol BM since starting the gluten-free diet. I AM SO HAPPY TO SAY..IT WAS 4 LITTLE HARD NUGGEST..*sorry if I gross you out* I have seen a huge change in her. she is back to my sweet little girl again. sure she has her moments but I SWEAR it's not 24/7 like it has been the last few months. She's not napping during the days...

    I've gotta say, I have only been doing the diet with Emmah for 4 days and It's more work but it's not hard. you do what you have to do to keep yourself or your child healthy. I does take time to get into a routien though. I am making soups and freezing them...cooking past and freezing it. I am gonna make a weeks worth of gluten-free foos's on sundays, stuff...

    Thanks for the info everyone....I now have a question that I am panicing about. I made Emmah rice crispy squares the other day with nature's path organic crispy rice gluten-free cereal and mashmellow and vanilla. After reading a tread about preschool snacks and some said watch marshmellows I ran to the marshmellow to read it. *MODIFIED CORN STARCH* is...

    I made rice crispy squares (gluten-free rice cereal) for my 3 1/2 year old Emmah and I used marshmellow that said modified corn starch...IS THAT BAD? Did I give her gluten by accident. OMG. I wouldn't have ever relised it until I was reading a tread and the one lady said to watch out for mashmellows.

    No,no. Emmah has already had the blood work done. Guess I didn't touch on that point earlier, sorry. Right now we are just waiting to see what the results are when they come back from the lab. We didn't go gluten free until a week after her blood was drawn for testing.

    I am at this point not waiting for the biopsy. I have already gone gluten free and I am already seeing differences in her. I do understand it could take a long time for her D to get normal. the reson I am not waiting for the biopsy is because we have a HUGE anesthesiologists shortage here right now and they couldn't tell me how long it would be *if* they...

    So I called the peds office again today to see if the test results were back and the young girl said she found emmah's file on his desk. she said he could be writing a letter to the specilist again or the results could be back, he will call me in the next few days if the results are in...I AM GOING CRAZY...give me the results already. NOW I wish I wouldn...

    I have to say this,your expeience is rare in my experiences. Even my grandmother who had sever damage from celiac disease was tested NEG 6 times and a biopsy was incon. The only way they found out she was celiac was to break on of her blisters and test the fluid. However that is done. my brother and 2 of his children have celiac disease. first tests...

    Alrighty, I think my mom is hopeful but so am I so I am just gonna say I am seeing an improvement in Emmah (3 1/2) in less than 48 hours being gluten free and I mean free. I am so worried about CC I am cleaning like mad and making her foods first and so on. If I bore you I'M SORRY. ANYWAY lol, here is emmah's diet since we went gluten free. Monday...

    What I wanted to know is more information of testing and the inaccuracy in children. My ped keeps saying here in manitoba we use the TTG and it's the most sensitive test going. I called him on it once and thats what he said. I know this is untrue but would like more info so I can throw it at him when Emmah goes back for her weekly height and weight in...

    Thanks so much, it sure help to hear that I'm not the only going through this. I also wouldn't wish it on anyone!! We started the gluten-free diet last night, it's not cheap but it's worth it. We did find out from the man that owns the gluten free store here that we can claim her food on our income tax return so that will be a help. If anyone has any...

    I don't know if this sounds completely stupid or not but Emmah went gluten free yesterday, we had gluten free soup with toast and cheese spread for supper last night & this morning gluten-free cereal and she hasn't complained about her belly hurtting even once yet. I know I am probably just hoping it is working already but would it make her feel less...

    She had one negitive this past spring but now that we have more gluten in out diet things have got worse. We are waiting on results from a second blood test, should be back by next week. I understand what you are saying, Thank you. I will tell the docotrs that if she's responding to the gluten-free diet she will not go back on just to do the biopsy. If...

    I am sick of waiting on my daughters doctors, I am taking out all gluten as of right this second. Does anyone have any advice for me? I could really use it. I will be telling my ped tomorrow that if the GI specialist wants a biopsy then she can go back on gluten for 6 months but for now as her LOVING CARING mother I am doing what I hope is best for my child...
