  1. Hi Amy, My son has shown signs of celiac disease since birth and no one can tell me otherwise. I was stirctly breastfeeding when at 4 months I found good info from a breastfeeding specialist (a board certified lactation consultant) via email and internet research. She advised me to go gluten-free and guess what? My son was cured. Now that he is 19...
  2. I was just curious whether or not any parent has witnessed a "gulten reaction" in there child following immunizations. My son went in for his 18 month well check and received 2 immunizations. He has been a mess since. Liquid stinky diahrrea, painfull gas and not sleeping well. (He was up crying half of the night last night). I am trying to figure out...
  3. Hi, Sounds like you are getting good support here, the only thing I can add is that if you are still breastfeeding, you too will have to go gulten free. At 4 months old, I figured out through trial and error that my was at least gulten intollerant. I nursed him until 13 mo. and began to introduce solids after 6mo. As long as I remained gluten-free and...
  4. Hi, Gluten DOES travel through the breastmilk. If you are going to continue to pump breastmilk for your daughter, you should also be on a gluten free diet. It is great you are still giving her milk, it will continue to boost her immune system. Good luck finding the crackers, I have not had good luck finding a tasty cheese cracker my son finds appealing...
  5. Thanks for sharing your experience. My son has never had constipation, but I feel like because of his diarrhea at such an early age, and large loose or at least very soft stools for over a year now, I am a poopie diaper expert. My husband laughs at me because if he changes our son I give him the 3rd degree "How did it smell, how big was it, did it run out...
  6. Thanks for the info. I will check out the genetic testing. We are changing insurance so cannot make any new appt. untlil after July 1. My ped. thinks I am nuts anyway. My son remains well above 50th % for growth, so in his eyes, does not fit profile for celiac. Friends and family also think I am nuts which is why I was hoping some kind of positive test...
  7. Hi My son has been gluten-free since 4 months old. I was strictly breastfeeding when he developed severe diahrrea. After weeks of research (no help from peditrician) I went on a dairy free gluten free diet. His symptoms disappeared. At 6 months of age I introduced solids and things went fine (still gluten-free). At 13months I weaned him and he has...
  8. When my son was 4mo. old I sought help on-line for his fussiness/gas/liquid stools. My pediatrician tested for lactose intollerance and said he was positive. Going dairy-free did not improve things. After much research we tried gluten-free and dairy-free diet. His condition improved greatly. He is now 17months old and my MD is advising we go through...
