    Pretty much from the minute I got pregnant I have had the worst chinese food cravings, usually stuff that's all gluten like egg rolls and lo mein. I would like to learn to make some of this stuff at home if it is possible. Does anyone make Chinese food at home? I know how to make stir fry. I mean gluten-free versions of noodle and fried dishes that you cannot...

    I have already spoken to my husband. I do not feel it is for me to confront his mother any further. He has spoken to her and she claims that whatever I want is fine though I will believe it when I see it. I agree with many of the posts that this shower has nothing at all to do with me or my child. I am apparently a mere inconvenience at my own shower. I have...

    I don't know if anyone else has been through this but this has to be the pinacle of insensitive relatives. My mother in law informs me that she wants to have MY BABY SHOWER in a normal italian restaurant where I could obviously eat nothing. When I pointed this out to her she said "oh that's ok we can just bring special food for you" It's my shower!! It's...

    So I finally have a due date. I am due February 1st. Looks like there will be lots of February babies. Must have been something in the air this spring.

    I really sympathize with you. I went through this exact thing earlier in the week. I work in Manhattan and its restaurant week. A bunch of my coworkers are going out to this one restaurant where there is absolutely nothing I can eat. They asked me to go and (politely) I said I would really like to go but unfortunately there is really nothing on the menu that...

    Ok, I didn't know this stuff either until I got pregnant. You are not allowed to have cold cuts. I thought this was ridiculous when I heard it from one of my pregnant friends but a combo of internet research and my dr confirmed. Apparently they are afraid you are going to get listeria which pregnant women are very prone to. You can only eat tuna or salmon...

    Ok, I realize I'm pregnant and maybe it's just the hormones, but I'm really truly depressed. I feel like our lives are so much harder than non-Celiacs. I'm tired of my "friends" turning up their noses when I bring in gluten-free food or mention going to gluten-free restaurants. I just feel like yelling "I have to eat this way all the time! You can't suck...

    That's great! I'm going to start planning the trip now. Daveyboy, my husband and I were thinking of going to Dublin for a long weekend. I will check out the Irish Celiac forum but can you recommend any restaurants you like in Dublin?

    Hi, So I am thinking of taking my first vacation since I was diagnosed with Celiac. I have taken many cruises before since the cost works out so well but honestly the thought of a vacation based around food scared me to death. I wrote to Norwegian to ask if they could accomodate a Celiac and this was their response Hello, Please be...

    I love Mozzarelli's. I make it a point to go at least once a week. I actually like the pizza better than the pizza at Rissoteria but I am a big fan of sicilian pizza so I like the thicker crust. I always go during the week. The last time I went they had gluten-free carrot cake (which in hindsight I should have gotten since I love carrot cake) I am probably...

    I have heard that if you get glutened while you are pregnant you can have a miscarriage. I was wondering how true this was. Should I be afraid to eat out anywhere in case I accidentally get glutened? Should I never go to a dinner party or eat other peoples' food? I have been very worried about this. Please let me know.

    I have always wanted to go to San Diego and you have just given me one more reason! It's 96 with the heat index in NYC.

    That would be great actually thank you!! Where are you going in Ireland?
  14. angel42
    Hi! This is sort of a travel question but please indulge me. I am writing since I have heard that Coeliac is quite common in Ireland so I thought it might be a good place to visit. I really wanted to ask people who actually live in Ireland if restaurants are accomodating to people with Coeliac, if it is difficult to get gluten-free food etc. I really...

    I stumbled across this while on the net. I guess carry out containers made of wheat starch are supposed to be biodegradable. This is the first I have heard of this but the thought of carry out containers made of gluten completely freaks me out so hopefully this will not catch on. This is the article Open Original Shared Link

    Hi! I am eight weeks pregnant. I do not have a due date yet, the doctors keep saying it is too early. I have almost super human gluten cravings.

    This has been really interesting! Thanks for starting it! "Angel" is my husband's nickname for me and 4/2 is my birthday.

    I drink Silk soy milk like it's going out of style and I've never had a problem with it. This is from the Silk website: What is a dairy allergy? Can I use Silk products if I am allergic to dairy? Many people are allergic to milk (usually cow's milk) or milk products. Dairy allergies are different from lactose intolerance. A dairy allergy is an extreme...

    Thank you guys so much!! So I got the book "What to expect when you are expecting" and it has a whole nutrition section. So I 'm reading through it and I figure, hey, this isn't that difficult, until I get to the whole grain section. According to the book you need 6 servings a day of grain. Now if you don't have celiac it actually seems pretty easy to...

    Hi! I just found out I am pregnant! While I am thrilled I am also concerned about getting a balanced diet while I am pregnant. I seem to be suffering from all day "morning sickness" but I want to make sure I am eating right. (When I can actually eat ) Since everyone has been so helpful with all my other non-pregnancy celiac related questions,...

    Does anyone know what happens if you book a shore excursion that comes with lunch?

    The same thing happened to me last night! I went to a place in NYC after work. I spoke to the waitress about my Celiac and she spoke to the chef and assured me that the Ceviche did not have gluten. I can tell it did not have gluten since in addition to my gi symptoms I get very bad brain fog and have motor probs after eating gluten and honestly I am not NEARLY...

    Since I started the thread I feel compelled to post a follow up. I just had half a gluten-free brownie. I REALLY don't feel well. I threw the rest out. Mind you, I felt fine after the first one so I am guessing there was just some cross contamination with this one.
  24. angel42
    Well one friend tried them and said they were very good, another was afraid to try it (although he would not admit it) and gave it to me.
  25. angel42
    I've been sending my non-celiac friends from work over to get gluten-free brownies to try to make it seem like there is a big demand for them.
