Just a quick query.... Is there something about the gluten free breads/pastas etc that makes it impossible to eat alot of it? My son seems able to stomach alot of rice but when it comes to eating gluten-free pasta he seems to get full much quicker & he will only eat small amounts of gluten-free bread too... just wondered if its something in...

Hi there My son has had blood in his stools on a number of occasions - the first time was when i was still nursing him & had replaced dairy with Soy & his allergist assumed from that that he has a Soy allergy (non IgE). He also had blood in his stools when we tried him with Oats, Corn & Millet. Sounds like an intolerance of some sort.....

Thanks for everyones advice. I spoke with the allergist yesterday & he was totally dismissive of any opinion but his own - & that is that my youngest has multiple food allergies & that is that. He said how could I even be suspicious of celiac disease when he hasnt been exposed to grains/gluten yet? So what about his reactions to basically...

I was talking with my youngest sons dietician yesterday about my concerns over my eldest sons dramatic weight loss etc & she actually asked if his stools float & if they were pale. When I said that they always do & always are she told me that really wasnt a good thing & that it indicated a malabsorption issue which we will be raising with...

I'd be interested to hear others opinions on this too... my youngest was how you describe (runny nose, foul smelling frothy erratic bowels, rash, irritability, screaming every waking hour) every single day for the 4&1/2 months that I nursed him. Right now he has a *v* restricted diet & still isnt 100% (either that or he is just a *v* difficult baby...

Hi All I ask because my youngest DS is currently under the care of an Allergy Consultant due to multiple food allergies. He's currently on a dairy/wheat/gluten/soy/nut/egg/fish free diet (with a few oter exclusions thrown in there for good measure!) but until I discovered this site I was unaware of the risk of CC or the fact that Rice Krsipies ...

Thanks for getting back to me again Carla What should I be looking our for in body care products then? I assume the culprit isnt actually listed as gluten in shampoo etc?? I did see a list of 'safe' toiletries on the site but with being in the UK I imagine I'll be using alot of different brands. Also, is there any link between low levels of B6 ...

Many thanks for your reply Yep, my youngest son is off dairy - basically all he eats right now is rice (or rice pasta/bread/milk), 5 fruits, 5 veg, chicken & beef & arrowroot (for making custard/white sauce)... he has multiple food allergies so his diet is v restricted. I suppose he could be getting gluten from elsewhere though - from me like...

Hi all From what I have read it would seem that being gluten free (or at least gluten light!) would have a bearing on the result of the tests for Celiac... just wondering if there are *any* tests that dont require you to be eating gluten at the time of being tested as my youngest DS is pretty much everything free right now lol & still has some symptoms...

Hi Mari My sons not been diagnosed with celiac disease as yet but does have multiple food allergies which we knew about before weaning onto solids as he'd reacted to pretty much everything in my diet while I nursed him. We see a dietician pretty regularily & were told to start weaning with 'pure' baby rice (some brands have other things added believe...

Hi all Have just joined the forum so bear with me while I find my bearings & forgive me if I ask silly questions... A little history first. DS was a year old last week. He was a premmie baby & exclusively breastfed from day 1. After 8 days at home we made our 1st trip back to the hospital as he was making so much noise at night that...

Hi there I'm very new to all this... just actually registered with the site today but your post struck a bit of a cord with me as I also have a young son with multiple food allergies. At 4&1/2mths after pretty much permanent gassiness, diarrhoea, passing blood, vomiting, fussy feeding, irritability, refusal to lie flat (or lie down at all really...
