My youngest child is almost 6 months old. He is exclusively breastfed, only this week have I offered him a few bites of baby food. However his entire life his gas has been extremely nasty, and it is getting worse. I mean almost inhuman! No kidding! His bowel movements are normal for breastfed babies, and they are foul, but they have absolutely nothing...

my daughter is 12, and is just the opposite. at home i think she has add, but her 5th and 6th grade teachers seen no sign of it at school. i have just sent a letter asking her 7th grade teachers if they are seeing any signs of it now, as her grades have slipped this past 9 weeks and she had a couple of missing assignments. not trying to make an excuse...

i noticed you mentioned it being hard and expensive to send gluten free lunches to school. i wanted to share with you all what i do. since my daughter was the first one and only one in her school with celiac, noone knew anything about it. we agreed that she should not have to eat a cold lunch every day since she wasnt bringing her lunch based on preference...

does your school have a program for students with chronic diseases? ours is starting this this semester. i just got a letter and form about it yesterday. i called the county wide nurse director and she said they would occasionally pull my daughter out during her related arts (not academic) class to discuss her disease (celiac) and ways to cope, things...

With help on breastfeeding and increasing your milk supply, go to kellymom dot com. It is a great forum for moms a d breastfeeding.

the following are some products my daughter has been eating with no problems. however, a lady we know has celiac and says she should not be eating these products at all. i dont see anything on the ingredients list, but am i missing something? kellogs corn flakes kellogs rice crispies random brands of hot dogs (we have swapped to only nathans or hebrew...

well, i could go ahead and swap the home over, and then if it turns up that i need extra stuff or just cant manage the cravings, i could always eat those things outside of the home. thank you all so much for the advice so far. keep it coming! i really appreciate it!!

i should add that i have never had trouble getting pregnant, i havent been tested for celiac. my daughter has it and my sons show signs. i am hoping that by swapping the whole house over, it will of course banish any chance of CC at home and that my boys will react positively to the change, as well as hubby and myself. i am going to ask my doc to order...
