	  ARCHIVED Six Flags Discovery Kingdom In Vallejo,camomof2 replied to janelyb's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants We go a few times every summer, and as they check my bags, I start it off with letting them know that my 4 year old has Celiac Disease and requires a special diet. I have NEVER had a problem. I do have a Doctor's note, but have never had to pull it out. I would recommend getting a note from your Dr. for any amusement places in the future, but I have never...

	We took a Carnival cruise last April, and they were great in the dining room. The maitre'd came out every night to talk with me about the next evening's meal, and how they could prepare it for my celiac daughter. I did take a lot of snacks for her, and they told me I could use a portion of their fridge in the kitchen if I needed it.

	  ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed With Celiac And Throwing A B-day Partymomof2 replied to swinkler's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs On my daughter's 2nd b-day, we had an "art party." For the dessert, we had the kids build their own ice cream sundaes in place of cake. We had tons of toppings, and the kids gobbled up the dessert. We simply put a candle in my daughter's ice cream and sang to her. We made "Pamela's" brownies last year, and topped them with icing. My daughter who is NOT a...

	  ARCHIVED Chuck E Cheese'smomof2 replied to SofiEmiMom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs We go there about once a month, and never have a problem. I usually cook a gluten-free pizza, and freeze the slices. When we go there, I ask them to put it on some parchment paper, and run it through the oven. My daughter loves getting pizza warm and it always comes out crispy.

	  ARCHIVED Suggestions For Disney Worldmomof2 replied to shayesmom's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants We are approaching our long awaited trip to DisneyWorld ourselves, and about a month ago, I typed in "gluten free Disneyworld" in google and up popped tons of suggestions of places to eat there. All through each park, and incuding the restraunts in the hotels. It was the most comprehensive list I have seen. Good Luck and enjoy!

	  ARCHIVED Thanksgiving...momof2 replied to e&j0304's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs My suggestion is to contact your aunt, and ask the brand of turkey she has purchased. Then, get online, and check it out. I would also ask your aunt if she puts the stuffing in the turkey. Last year was our 1st gluten-free holiday, and I just brought some Oscar Meyer turkey slices for her, and she was fine with that. I was pretty intimidated about it all...

	I have GREAT news!!! If you are thinking of traveling to Disneyland, or have a trip planned...let me share my findings! We got back last night, and had a great gluten free trip! We called ahead and recieved NO help. I was rather disappointed, until we arrived at the character breakfast at Goofy's kitchen and I asked to speak to the chef about my daughter...

	  ARCHIVED Children's Book?momof2 replied to lipreader's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs We have the book "Eating Gluten Free with Emily" and I agree it is a great book! My 2 year old Celiac is a little young for it, but my 4 year old, non-Celiac loved it. I am however going to take the one suggestion to make my own book! What a great idea! You can't get any more personal than that!

	  ARCHIVED Should I Buy A Cooler?momof2 replied to lipreader's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs I have a 2 year old, and have fallen in love with our cooler/warmer/diaper bag. It is a backpack looking "diaper bag" that has compartments on each side for a cup, but in the front, it has an insulated compartment to hold warm or cold foods. I use a microwavable cool/hot "thing" that you buy in the area of the store that sells compresses, and ace bandages...

	  ARCHIVED What Ingredients May Hide Gluten?momof2 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications I have been feeding my daughter gluten-free food for the past year, and have avoided any sort of food that I haven't called the manufacturer on. Since she is getting a bit older, (just turned 2) she is starting to notice when people hand her and her sister something, and I have to take hers away from her. So, my question is, what are the ingredients that...

	YAHOO!!! THanks for the info! We will definetely check it out! My mom lives in Vacaville, and we live in Roseville, so we travel through there weekly, and occassionally stop at the Davis Co-op! Thanks for posting!

	My little story... We went to a Japanese restaurant tonight, and ordered my daughter a side of steamed rice and cold tofu. They brought tofu with tempura all over it, and laying in soy sauce. Needless to say, I sent it back. I explained what I wanted "cold tofu with nothing on it!" They brought cold tofu, with ginger and green onions on it, laying in a tempura...

	  ARCHIVED Gluten Free Birthdaymomof2 replied to momof2's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs My daughter started showing symptoms at 12 months old, and at 14 months old, she had a blood test that had very high numbers. Her pediatrician was so convinced by the numbers, that she assumed the GI Doc would say no to a biopsy. We ended up getting the biopsy done, 2 weeks after the blood test, and it proved the findings. If we would have waited until 1...

	I am assuming it is a family practitioner that you are looking for? My daughter sees a pediatic GI specialist named Dr. Yinka Davies. She has an office in Sacramento and Roseville with Sutter Medical Group. I am sure she could get you in touch with a family Dr. that is also familiar with testing. She has gotten us in touch with a few families that also have...

	My daughter had her 2nd birthday party, the 1st since being diagnosed 10 months ago. We put on an art party for her, full of painting and arts and crafts. The hit of the party was the dessert though. The kids each got to make an ice cream sundae with toppings such as chocolate chips, sprinkles, m & m's, chocolate syrup, etc. It was a huge hit, and I felt...

	  ARCHIVED Wearing Medical Alert Bracelet?momof2 replied to mytummyhurts's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants I just had to laugh about talking to yourself. My daughter asks me all the time, "mommy, who are you talking to?" Embarrased, I respond "nobody, I was just thinking!"

	My daughter was 14 months old and weighed only 16 lbs when she had the biopsy done. It was a hard decision, but we are glad we did it. She is so healthy now, that you would never know that she had been so sick. If we didn't have the biopsy, looking at her today, I would doubt she has celiac, but since we had that biopsy, I am confident in knowing she was...

	  ARCHIVED Constant Diarrheamomof2 replied to Twister2's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs When my 14 month old was diagnosed, my 3 year old tested negative. We started the 14 month old on gluten-free foods, and now at almost 2 years old, she eats her own foods, and has no problem with it. We know we won't be able to do it forever, but right now we can eat pizza, breads, anything you can imagine, we eat in front of her, and she doesn't care. We...
