  1. Hi, I am a few weeks ahead of you my dd scope was about three weeks ago. She also had muscle loss, refusal to eat and no energy I carried her everywhere. She is 2 and almost a half. She also was super picky after her problems which were simliar random throwing up, severe tummy pain. At first she would only eat a few of the safe things she used to...
  2. I just wanted to say thank you Soooo much for posting. I have been a total wreck trying to make sure food is 100% safe for my daughter. She lost too much weight before her diagnosis and I am doing my best to make sure her tummy heals quickly. We also have to avoid all nuts and Rice so to mark things off my list of what to avoid is fantasitic - thanks so...
  3. Hi, I had this Q posted in kids and babies section but didn't get much response hoping someone here can help. Hi, I am still pretty new at this for my dd who is 2. Do folks avoid carmel color and dextrose / dextrin? I have read if it is from a US company it should be safe? Or do you call to make sure the US companies are getting thier carmel color etc...
  4. Hi, I am still pretty new at this for my dd who is 2. Do folks avoid carmel color and dextrose / dextrin? I have read if it is from a US company it should be safe? Or do you call to make sure the US companies are getting thier carmel color etc from US suppliers? Thanks,
  5. as for receipes if you look in the section : Gluten-Free Recipes - Baking & Cooking Tips On this site there is one for Gluten Free Pumpkin Chocolate chip cookies. I am only on my third week trying to cook for my kids and they both really liked this one. I think the pumpkin helps mask the fact that there are "odd" flours in there. I had to substitute...
  6. Hi thanks so much that makes me feel better that it is normal for her to be thirsty. I have started giving her half juice half water (when she isn't watching me pour it) and I limit her juice before meals as much as possible. How long does this tend to last?
  7. Hi, My daughter was diagnosed about 2 1/5 weeks ago, so we are into our third week of gluten free. Over all she is seeming much healthier. Eating now - yippee and saying her tummy hurts much less often. I am concerned though as she wants to drink a TON of juice. Is this normal. I am limiting her milk intake for now because it seems to increase the...
  8. lol, well that makes me feel better I'll try to not stress about the cereal thing for now. Thanks, Nichele
  9. Thanks for all the replies, I tried a Chebe mix and it was very chewy don't know what I did wrong. Thanks for the advice on which flours work well together - I hadn't heard of coconut before that sounds yummy. I think I will try quinoa next. Thanks again!
  10. Thanks for all the replies, looks like most are out for us do to some level of Rice or Nuts (we don't do any nuts at all not even processed in a facility) - ug. Believe it or not she is not into muffins she just tears them up. She is currently eating crackers (ener-g brand gluten free) and cream cheese for breakfast.
  11. Hi, We can't use rice and it seems to be in many many of the receipes I am seeing. What would you use to replace it? We also need to avoid all nut and bean flours. Thanks,
  12. Is there any? We can't do rice or nuts or oat either. I bought my dd 2 some gluten free corn flakes she didn't like them. I tasted them now I know why. Thanks,
  13. Hi, I have been looking for receipe for playdoh but we can't do rice - does anyone know of another alternate flour we could substitute?
  14. Hi, I would like to expand and read all replies at once is this possible? If you could let me know that would be great thanks, Nichele
  15. Thanks for the replies, I will probably try the moonsand but I hear that it makes a huge mess? I can't do the edible version as my son has Ige food allergies to nuts. Perhaps I could sub sunbutter - once I challenge him on sunflower seeds...
  16. Hi, Do you all let your kids play with play doh? I understand it has wheat in it? Alternatives? thanks,
  17. Well her bowels are changing I'll just leave the description at that I wouldn't say normal yet but different. Good luck tomorrow hopefully they help you soon!
  18. Hi all, My 2 yo daughter was just diagnosed. I have already tried 2 bread receipes that were complete failures. If anyone has any suggestions for a good bread roll pizza or pancake receipe I would really appreciate it! Oh we also have to avoid all nuts, seeds, rice and bean flours Thanks,
  19. Hi, She did ok. They told us they weren't going to intubate her but they ended up doing that anyway not sure why. She was pretty grouchy upset crying for about 2 hours after - they told us that is pretty normal from the meds. She is 2 1/4. She complained of her throat hurting for 2 days or so. However she also came down with a cold on Sunday so I...
  20. Hi, I am new here, and still waiting on my dd diagnosis, she had her scope on Friday. If I were you I would call and beg to get an earlier appt. and ask if they do think they might want to schedule a scope if they could get you on the schedule for that now before the dr see's him. I called mine and they were able to get us in a bit earlier and I was...
  21. I wanted to say thanks for all your comments and encouragement. We are starting day 4 of Gluten free (she had her scope on Friday) and she does seem slightly better. Her tummy seems slightly less distended she seems to be playing a bit on her own vs. being held all the time and eating a bit more. I am still waiting on the call with the test results, but...
  22. Hi, My daughter has just been mostly diagnosed with celiac. Her blood work came back at 100 not sure what that means then referral to a ped GI. He did a scope on her today to confirm and he said it looks like it - but he won't be 100% sure until he gets the labs back. He was sure enough to have us start on a gluten free diet today. He made us feed...
