My daughter is 16 months old. As soon as we started giving her milk she had a lot of problems, so now we give her soy milk. It took us much longer to catch on to the gluten thing. She had reflux when she was very little and continued to spit up well past her first birthday. We finally figured it was the gluten. We're pretty certain the weird poo was...

When she eats something that bothers her, my daughter will often have stuff in her poo that seems like sand or pepper. We think it is part of the allergic response, but we're not sure. Her doctor doesn't seem to know anything about gluten sensitivity so we're on our own here. Is this common? Her diet right now is very simple (no seasonings etc.) so we...

Thanks so much for all the helpful responses! I can't wait to try out the recipes and products.

I like to make casseroles, etc. that use Bisquick or Ritz crackers. I'm relatively new to the gluten free thing, and every time I think of making something, I have that moment where I hit my forehead and lament that I cannot make that item. As far as Bisquick goes, I know there's gluten-free biscuit mix but would it still work if I didn't make biscuits...

I have a definite gluten sensitivity, and an odd skin symptom that I've never heard of anyone else having. I wonder if it's related. My skin, in different places over my body and at different times, feels overly sensitive, if that makes any sense. It feels generally irritated and achy if anything touches it, including clothes. I used to only feel this...

Thanks to everyone who replied. I feel better now. I am not eating gluten, but I have decided not to freak out if I accidentally ingest some.

I have a similar story. I went gluten-free at the end of January, just based on a hunch, and I found out last weekend that I'm pregnant after two years of trying! This is very fast. Could that be it? My celiac blood panel was negative but I have one of the two genes. It could be a coincidence, but I doubt it. I can't know for sure because since I...

After years of 'strange' symptoms, including vertigo and infertility and a host of other 'random' problems, I finally thought to look into the possibility of celiac disease. I started a gluten-freen diet about a month ago, and then last week went to a doctor who is very knowledgeable about gluten sensitivity. My blood test results will be in probably Tuesday...
