My son was also just under 20 lbs when he turned 2. He just turned 3 and is now 24 lbs. For some perspective, he was 15 lbs 2 oz at 6 months of age. Then I started feeding him Cheerios and Rice Crispies and when he turned 1 he was 15 lbs 8 oz. That was when we had him tested. Once we put him on a gluten-free diet he started gaining weight nicely, but he was already small from the lack of growth during a crucial growth phase. So while 24 lbs is small for a 3 year old, it's fine for my son because he has been steadily gaining weight. As long as she grows consistently and appears healthy she probably is, but it's important to have regular checkups with the doctor.

My son was 16 months old when he had his biopsy and they didn't let me stay with him while they put him under. Afterwards he was sleepy but recovered quickly and was able to eat immediately withoug getting sick. However, my daughter was 8 when she had her biopsy. This time I was able to stay with her until she was asleep, but when she woke up she was grumpy and nauseated, and didn't feel well for a couple of hours. The procedure is quick and I had results in 2 days. Good Luck.

I can count the number of solid poops my son has had on one hand, but every solid has been accompanied by liquid. However, most of the time he has varying degrees of non-solid poops, from diarrhea to more pasty looking, and sometimes it looks like oatmeal. He eats gluten-free but his brother and sister don't so I think there may be some cross contamination. Any thoughts?

So here's the contact information. Open Original Shared Link

Im in Canada, but it benefits me as well. So lets give this bombarding idea a go.

Is there any contact information for Pier 49 pizza? I think they offer a gluten-free pizza in one location in downtown Salt Lake City, but that is the only one I know of. Maybe if everyone contacts their local Pier 49, they might offer gluten-free pizza in all their restraunts.

My son is 15 months old and was just diagnosed with Celiac after a biopsy on June 18. He had a blood test done first, but it was inconclusive. As an infant he was put on Prevacid for his projectile vomiting, and later he was weaned from that and he no longer vomited. He was perfectly fine until his 12 month visit to the doctor and he hadn't put on any weight since his 9 month visit. At that point his doctor recommended we see a Gastroenterologist. It took a while to get in, and in the mean time I noticed that he always had diarrhea. When we finally got in to see the GI doctor she sent us to the hospital for some blood work on a number of problems. Everything came back normal except his IgA ( I think that is what it was called) so she suspected Celiac at that point. We went ahead with the biopsy, which was positive and I have been doing my best to feed him a gluten-free diet for 4 days now, although I havn't seen the nutritionist yet. I'm not only hoping he starts to feel better soon, but I hope he starts growing. He's almost 16 months old and weighs 17lbs 3 oz. Everyone likes to point out how small he is to me. I'm new to all of this and I find myself having a difficult time dealing with this disease, and I'm not even the one who is sick. I wish you luck and hope your kid starts feeling better soon too.
