  1. I recently made great gluten-free pumpkin bread using Pamela's Products baking mix and the recipe on Pamela's website. It was really good. My non-celiac mom made the same recipe for my celiac dad and she even said it was really good. The recipe calls for one egg and that's what I used when I made it before. I'm also allergic to eggs (but can usually eat...
  2. Does anyone know of a gluten-free plain sausage (not flavored, so no apple or Italian)? I need it for a rice stuffing recipe, it can be pork or turkey sausage. Thanks!
  3. Lundberg's are gluten-free. I think they only have the salty/savory flavors (nothing sweet like the Quaker carmel)
  4. Congratulations! I'm also pregnant and just a few days behind you, Christine. I haven't had my first appt. yet (it's Oct. 25...can't wait!) but my calculations put my due date around June 9. It happened on our second try and I still can't believe it. We're telling the family in the next couple of weeks (my parents when we see them for my mom's b.day on Sat...
  5. Congrats! She's a cutie! Keep us posted on the guidance of the ped. gastro and when you end up introducing wheat etc. Hopefully your little girl won't have celiac, but if she does, I'm sure you can handle it. Anya PS: Cross your fingers for me please...we're trying to conceive!
  6. I'm trying to identify the source of a reaction. Does anyone know if Brianna's French Vinaigrette salad dressing is gluten-free? Or does anyone have it nearby and they could tell me the phone number on the package to call for info? (I have it at home, but I'm at work). Thanks!

    ARCHIVED Anyone Ttc?

    cgilsing, Good luck with your quest to TTC! I definitely hear you on the folic acid topic. I've been taking prenatal vitamins for a few weeks now, even though we aren't going to try until probably early November. I figured it couldn't hurt to prepare my body far in advance, plus these vitamins have some calcium (my regular multi didn't) and I know I probably...

    ARCHIVED Anyone Ttc?

    Thanks for posting your experiences! It's helpful to hear how things have gone for other Celiac moms and moms-to-be. I hope we get a few more ladies in on this topic! KayJay, thanks for the tipcs. Good luck and keep us posted when you have news of your baby's arrival. I'll have been gluten-free for 10-11 mos. when we plan to start TTC. One reason ...
  9. I'm wondering if any of my fellow Celiacs out there are trying to conceive or recently became pregnant? We should follow along with each other's experiences. My husband and I plan to TTC this fall. I can't help but wonder if my body is fully healed (been gluten-free since December 2004 diagnosis), even though I have been feeling really great for 6 months...
  10. When I went gluten-free in December my periods remained normal (I was still on the pill then -- just went off a couple weeks ago, so we'll see how that goes). I'm sure it's possible that going gluten free could mess with your cycle, just as it can take some time on the diet before Celiac symptoms disappear. It is pretty likely that your body is just readjusting...
  11. I've been gluten-free for 6 months now and am feeling great. I've always been nutrition conscious (perhaps because I was trying to figure out why eating made me feel so bad!), and I'm now having a hard time getting the suggested amount of whole grains in my diet without wheat/gluten products. I feel like most of our cereals are basically simple carbs. A person...
  12. Sounds like it could be Celiac to me. I had many of the same problems that you mentioned for years (which ramped up after I had severe Mono, which may have been a trigger) and was told it was IBS, yet the fiber supplements and avoidance of fats and alcohol did little to help. I felt miserable through all of college. After my dad was diagnosed with celiac...
  13. Can anyone suggest restaurants with gluten-free menus or that are particularly gluten-free-friendly in San Francisco, Sonoma/Napa region and Monterey/Carmel area? I'll be there on vacation next month and am worried about the prospect of eating out every meal for more than a week, especially after I was perpetually sick during a few days in Las Vegas last...
  14. My blood tests point to Celiac Disease (which I did after my father was diagnosed -- we've had similar symptoms for years) and I felt great during three weeks of going gluten free. My doctor wants me to do the endoscopy/biopsy since it's the "gold standard" of diagnosis, so I have to start eating gluten again for the next three weeks so the test will be accurate...
