Well, the test results were all in Turkish but I remember checking to see if they tested for all the antibodies (IgA, IgE, etc) and I'd felt satisfied. I stopped researching celiac after a year or two after my diagnosis and just moved on with my diet so now I've forgotten a lot of the information about testing. I'll need to read up again and check her medical...

Does your son have celiac? If so, did your son's pot belly improve on the gluten-free diet? I suspect I've had some gluten intolerance growing up with symptoms off and on but I never knew they were abnormal. I think I had a bit of a pot belly around the age of 5 (from what I remember in my childhood pictures around that age) but nowhere near as huge as my...

I'm sorry but I didn't do a search through the forum about this issue because I always struggle with trying to apply other people's slightly different questions and answers to a specific issue and I second guess myself, etc. I just need to ask specifically and get direct answers. Thanks :-) So. I have celiac disease, official diagnosis nearly 6 years...

I have DH and was diagnosed just over a year ago (while pregnant with my daughter) so I am still learning about eating gluten-free and still accidentally glutenating myself every now and then, especially since giving birth. I breastfeed my baby and I've read that gluten is passed through breastmilk. As far as I can tell, DD hasn't reacted. I've seen some...

My first pregnancy (which ended in miscarriage) last year triggered my DH. I became pregnant again three months after the miscarriage and was diagnosed with celiac while 8 weeks pregnant. I immediately went gluten-free and DH subsided. I cheated several times (powerful pregnancy cravings) and had very minimal DH reaction during the pregnancy. Since I had...

I'm also pregnant (3 and a half months) and a celiac. I was diagnosed with celiac when I was 7 weeks. I brought it up with my obgyn. They gave me gluten-free pre-natal vitamins (ask about those) and told me that as long as I gain weight and stay on gluten-free diet, then I should be fine. I will see a different obgyn (in the same practice) next week on the...

Thank you, friend! I most definitely would not risk hurting my baby and so far, have not had any temptation to give into those cravings. I am absolutely strict with my diet and I wouldn't have been if I wasn't pregnant and had no one else to consider. I didn't want my ob/gyn's lack of concern to lull me into a false sense of security and later, I'd weaken...

I've been browsing this forum for a while and decided to join. I am almost 12 weeks pregnant and was diagnosed at 7 weeks with celiac. I had the skin lesions for 5 months when I finally went to the dermatologist who misdiagnosed it as eczema. I felt suspicious about it and waited two months before deciding to try an allergist. I found out I was 3 pr 4 weeks...
