  1. I think it is a very personal choice and it totally depends on the child. Personaly starting her early because another kids in kindergarten ahs celaic isn't enough of a good reason. I look at it this way. hopefully the school will get all the gluten-free kinks out by next yr so your dd will have even a less chance of being glutened. Also just because...
  2. I just saw her on the View and she was great! She did skim on the gluten-free diet but of course cenered on autism which is her cause and she is doing a wonderful job with hit!. I am thrilled just to have the gluten-free diet out there because hopefully some one will go look up info about it and see how it helps autism then maybe read a bit about Celiac...
  3. I know when my ds was allergy tested they gave him the cream and it worked great. You do have to put it on and wait an hour though so maybe ask for it a few days in advance and put it on before you leave the house this way you aren't at the lab for hours. Aveeno oatmeal bath is great! Also my ds had major exzema (found out it was our beloved cat that...

    ARCHIVED Biaggi's

    In Algonquin, IL is WONDERFUL! I had read on her that they have a gluten-free menu so when we were out yesterday and we wanted to go out to eat we decided to give them a try. I went in side 1st to make sure that location could accomidate our gluten-free DD and they were AMAZING!!!!!!!! The menu was huge for the gluten-free stuff! I was so excited my ...
  5. thank you all so much! Every idea sounds great!!!!! Boy do I want cake now! LOL I have to say so far I have tried almost every thing my daughter has been eating that is gluten-free and everything has been so good so I can't imagine a cake not being yummy too! I am happy to hear so many store bought icing is gluten-free! David, Those cakes...
  6. My DD who is celiac has a bday comming up in Nov. This will be her 1st gluten-free bday. I am not a cook by any means but since there are no gluten-free bakeries around us I am going to make her cake. Does any one have a good recipe or know a really good gluten-free cake mix? I want to try to make it a few times before her bday to make sure it is one...
  7. Thanks for the reply, A food diary is a great idea. thing is she eats almost the same thing every dayLOL Panda puffs or gluten-free waffles then roated chicken with mustard for lunch then gluten-free pasta or yogurt for dinner LOL So her diary is simple! LOL I have a call into her ped now hopefully I will get a call back this am. I just feel...
  8. I would love too! I have found my self talking about Celiac disease to any one to get the word out there about it any way.
  9. I saw the show and was very excited to see gluten-free mentioned!
  10. Oh no! Poor Ezra and Lucas! I hope they both feel better soon. Not sure what to tell you about the antibiotics. Def call the dr monday to see. I thought the same thing as you with my son I thought since he was exposed to his sister in school and he was in preschool last yr he would be fine in kindergarten. less than a week into school he started...
  11. My DD has bee gluten-free going into the 3rd(maybe 4th week) she has been amazing about everything. We have been very careful at least we think we have been. Last week she had a bad headache so I gave her the Walmart brand (equate) meltaway pain med. Then the next day she had a tummy ache. I thought it was something she eat until Wed night she had another...
  12. I am so sorry you DS isn't feeling well. Honestly i would call the DRs office and ask for the dr to call you back and talk to them about his office help and how they don't respond like you feel they should. He /she may not even realize his staff is lacking in 'customer' response. If your son is truley still off take him in something else may have cropped...
  13. Thank you so much! I will def ask for a mgr from now on it can't hurt right I am also wondering if it was the Tylonal we were giving her for her head ache because it happened again last night. I know she was gluten-free unless he had something in school she shouldn't have but she swears she didn't. She was saying to hubby her head really hurt last...
  14. Taylor I think it is great that you post on these threads giving the kids perspective. It helps parents like me know my DD will be just fine growing up gluten-free! Thank you! I think the sign is a GREAT idea maybe have a letter that you can have copies of and talk to the people in the nursery when ever you drop her off? I can't imagine keeping a...
  15. Circles could be gluten or he could have other allergies. I saw you had him tested for food allergies what about air born ones? My son gets dark cirlces under his eye come spring and we know to up his allergy meds and with in 2 days he is fine. Same thing happens to my girlfriends son. It happens to my DD too but she is also Celiac so hers could be...
  16. I found out the day before and told my newly diagnosed dd who decided she wanted to talk about it with her 2nd grade class! Thankfully her teacher thought it would be a great idea! I was so proud of her! Very cool about October!
  17. I'm reading it now!
  18. I just got my DD's pathology reports back from her gastro and not only does she have Celiac but it says she has Chronic gastritis. do the 2 go hand and hand or could this be another issue I have to worry about?
  19. As I have said before my DD (7) is VERY lucky because she is very asymptomatic with her celiacs. But Friday she had McDonalds cheeseburger no bun I did the whole wheat allergy thing to the workers i watched them make it etc. Then Sat morning she woke up and said she had a terrible head ache all day. I gave her some Tylonal but as soon as it wore off...
  20. You need to do what you feel is right for your kid. You know him best. He still ahs a yr to mature and they grow alot in that 4-5 yr! My DD is a Nov bday and she was so ready to go at 4! So ready it was scary! In our town we had no choice to hold her back until the next yr because of her bday. Our son who bday is 7/25 will be one of the youngestin...

  22. Thanks again all! Famous Daves that was one of my daughters fav place to eat. the fact that the sauce there isn'tGF is a little bit of info mommy needs to hide from her until she gets more used to the diet.
