    Thanks. I think I am going to try and steer towards things with just one or two families. It is easier to control the food. Maybe we can try a splash pad or something. I think being pregnant tired and stressed makes it worse. We do go out- just not to the big group things. We haven't been to a birthday party since September. They are just too much for...

    You might want to have her get a RAST (blood allergy test). In addition to gluten my son was also allergic to Eggs. You could do the test and see if an intolerance to gluten appears. You could always try gluten free for a month and see if it helps. My son gained 4 lbs the first month and his behavior completely changed. Even if she is neg for celiac...

    So I have been a part of this mom's group since my son was little (before we found out about the celiac and other allergies). At first they were not very understanding about my son's celiac, but lately they have been trying. One of the mom's left open a container of goldfish crackers. I have talked to my almost three year old about not eating anything...

    Open Original Shared Link Do you think this will work with a mix like Pamela's or Bob's Red Mill?

    I know they are not exactly known for being gluten-free friendly. Do you think I would be okay just getting like the grilled salmon? Any other suggestions?

    I will try CC first- since no elimination will diet will work without fixing any CC issues. Thanks... I do need to check the lotions and the shampoos in the house. I checked his- but maybe he is getting off one of us. Thanks

    My son has been gluten-free for about 2.5 months. After going gluten-free we saw improvements in the size and the form of his stools after the first couple of days. He started to have growth spurts like crazy and his temperament improved dramatically. On Halloween my cousin made him cupcakes (gluten-free), but some residual flour in her sugar made...

    This might not be an option for you, but I decided to offer to cook the entire thing. I am making everything gluten free, egg free, carrot free, dairy free (my son has multiple food issues). I was concerned about CC from the kitchen or serving utensils. My family thinks I am over the top too- so I figured this was the best way. I am sure you have...

    This is the first time he has gotten sick. So I don't know if it is normal or not. He still has loose stools. He is on probiotics- so maybe I will call the naturopath and see if it is okay if I up the dose or if she has something else that helps. He is over 2 so I will look this up! Thanks for the advice. I do feel bad- but I guess you are right...

    Thanks I appreciate it. I think I feel more comfortable about the whole thing now. I think I was just overwhelmed the day I first posted this.

    He is lactose intolerant too.
  12. RobynJ
    Okay. I just we will just have to keep an eye out and wait it out then. Thanks!

    My cousin made gluten free cupcakes for him on Halloween. The next day he was sick. I think residue flour in her sugar or in her flour sifter is what made him sick. Last Sunday he seemed aggressive and a little sick. Monday he told me his tummy hurt and seemed really off. He still isn't himself and his bloated tummy is back. That was Saturday and he...

    I am new to all this- but if you had a note from your GI, you asked her not to- as her mother, and she obviously still does not understand that she is putting your child at risk of getting sick. I would go to the principal. I think the teacher needs to understand that this is not you trying to deny your daughter the opportunity - but you are trying to...

    I did have them over and I asked them to keep it gluten free. My sister just moved in with us for a few months and so I don't think we will be able to have people over as much since she works different hours.
  16. RobynJ
    Okay. Thanks.

    I thought I had replied again on Sunday night but for whatever reason it didn't post and I have really long work days on Monday and Tuesday. I sent a message to the assistant organizers and said that I was fine handling the money and stuff, but I didn't see us doing more with the group until I felt a little more confident about keeping him safe at...

    I saw a halloween candy list that showed which candies were free of which allergens, is there is a list of foods that are free of the top 8? My son in addition to gluten, is extremely reactive to eggs, and has lactose intolerance. He showed a moderate reaction to corn- so he should really be off that too. Is there a list like this for foods that naturally...

    I have been the organizer of a meetup group for moms for about a year. We are a little outside the norms (a lot of us cloth diaper and babywear)- so we have a group where we can get together and give each other advice. Most the meetups are in homes and people bring snacks and the kids help themselves and carry the food around the houses for the most part...

    ' Thanks!

    My son (2) just got his IgG allergy test back. He extremely reactive to eggs. We have removed them from his diet. This was weds night. Today he is showing a lot of aggressive behavior that subsided once we went gluten free. He had withdrawals from the gluten. Could he go through withdrawals from the eggs? Thanks in advance.
  22. RobynJ
    Okay. Thanks this all helps. I feel like an idiot and I should know this stuff. But we went from no known allergies to a whole bunch in like a month and a half so my brain is a little overloaded with all of this. Now he tolerates goat milk and goat cheese. Do you think that is enough lactase to keep him going? Could we do just those two and...

    My son did have gluten withdrawls. They were really intense. If he hadn't been so sick- I think weaning him off would be a better way to go. I check some of the sites for autism for more information.

    We are thinking of having another child and we talked about this. I am not saying this is "right" for everyone- but our thinking is even with all of my ds allergy and health problems we are still grateful he is our little boy. I think for us saying we don't want to have any more allergies or related health problems is like saying it would be better for...

    I found some great recipies including one in Wheat Free, Gluten Free Cookbook for Kids and Busy Adults (sarros). They are a little sticky and warm up better in the toaster oven- but my 2.5 year old loves them It uses Honey, water, olive oil, puffed rice cereal, pepper, salt, and little paprika for the coating. They look a lot like regular nuggets...
