I use three bowls, one full of gluten free flour, the second full of beaten egg (as long as there are no egg alergies), and third one full of gluten free breadcrumbs. cut up the chicken breast into nuggets, second roll in the flour until coated, next dip it into the egg and then the breadcrumbs. then place them onto a baking tray and cook in the oven... serve...

oh well that explains that then! Well the terribe twos are fairly hard work at the best of times. i find with my daughter who is just going through them herself, that ignoring the crying and starting to look at something else or pointing out something to distract her is working quite well. i used to do all of those things with my son but they never worked...

I know that this is meant to be the 'anything but celiac' space but just a thought, is he celiac or is that you or some other member of the family that is celiac since you are in this website? Cause my son is a celiac and his main symptom was constact whining... im talking all day every day about every little thing!!! You could barely say hello and he would...

It is my experience (though Im no expert - others on this board are much more experienced than me) that blood work in very young children is rarely accurate. If you get a positive result from blood tests in a child under 5 or in anyone actually, then there is no doubt that they have celiac however negative blood results, esp in children, dont always mean...

Yes cross contamination is a tough one... and with our son, his reaction is to get really cross, cantakerous and downright angry so that makes cross contamination even tougher in our house... we know instantly as his mood is so quick to change. It keeps us on tenderhooks as we hate his mood to change especially if we have people over or friends staying or...

If your child has had a lot of symptoms then you will really be relieved to see the results of the diet. It is marvellous. Our little boy was four when we put him on the celiac diet. He had behavioural and mood issues, very low weight and no weight gain at all in the past two and a half years, he had low immune system, very pale and was getting everything...

Thanks everyone,.. a few months back, when I first put our son on the diet, my husband decided to try it for a few days... while my sons symptoms (which were more physical i.e. weight, anemia etc and behavioural than relating to bowl movements) dramatically improved almost straight away, my husbands gastro symptoms seemed to get drastically worse for those...

I am so shocked. My son is a celiac - not an official diagnosis as I didnt want to put him through the biopsy but celiac specialist is in agreement and his response to diet is phenomenal. So my hubby has always had terrible stomach - lots of celiac symptoms. He would vomit most days, has reccurent diahorrea, bloating, really bad gas, sore back, sore joints...

My son gets overwhelmingly cross; everything upsets him... we can always tell when he has had some form of cross contamination because he will come in to a room and if someone even says hello, he is grumpy and crying... banging things around the place, generally a nightmare. He will also complain of stomach ache but it is never generalised... kind of all...

I dont think anyone means being small is a problem other than their concerns that their child might not be growing or gaining weight healthily. My son was two stone four pounds until he was five.... hadnt gained a pound in two and a half years... then out of the blue, after about two months on the gluten-free diet, he gained five pounds.... we were thrilled...

Diary issues often go hand in hand with celiac disease due to the small intestine being damaged by celiac and not being able to produce the right enzyme for breaking down dairy. My son is about five or six months gluten free now and is still completely off dairy as he had bad episodes from dairy products but once the intestine has healed some doctors say...

My son is also gluten and dairy free. Dark chocolate is naturally dairy free - if you go to your health food shops they will have dark chocolate eggs and many of them will have it marked on the egg that it is both gluten and dairy free. Dark chocolate is slightly bitter but still sweet and my son loves it! Make sure that it has a high percentage coca and...

As many people on this site would tell you, it is often difficult to diagnose celiac disease and lots and lots of people will have had completely negative blood tests. There are often false negative blood tests but if your results mentioned not being able to eliminate celiac disease that suggests to me that celiac is an issue and should be looked into. A...

My son was a nightmare from when he was tiny! He used to cry and whine all the time and the "episodes" as we used to call them, were morning, noon and night.... these episodes were kicking, screaming, bursting into tears over absolutely nothing... really loud, really cheeky, really cross all of the time. We were pulling our hair out in frustration by the...

Thank you!! Hubbie hasnt been gluten free at all yet. I told him to stay on it as much as possible until he gets a result either way. His blood results showed nothing but the celiac specialist told us that didnt really mean anything. Hopefully she will take multiple samples like you suggest. Our son is obviously a celiac and has had huge results on the diet...
