  1. If I was poetic & could spell, this would be a better ode. As you may ( or may not) know, I am the only Celiac in a family of 2 teen boys and a hub that eats like one. We were gone all day at the Nascar race so I wanted easyish dinner. Made 5 pizzas on the Kinnick???crusts, different toppings. The consensus " So good, Mom! ". " Yes, make this again...
  2. Agree with Em. We have successfully found " the one" ( eyes rolling) so we must know what we are doing.
  3. Perfect! You could be the baker. Or the person who ate the cookie piece!
  4. I bet speaking to her once will do it. She didn't realize it will be a problem. She doesn't live with it every day so she doesn't think about it like we do. Do the kids know? This would be a good way to educate them a little so as they get bigger, food allergies & Celiac won't seem so strange.
  5. Curly Lisa, you could go as a character from Shrek. They are sort of twisted versions of fairy tale characters. The background characters? Wicked witches parents? They must have been some mean, twisted people. The police looking for Snow White when she disappeared into the woods? Did they put out an Amber Alert ?
  6. Watching SNL. Got an idea for Russell's costume. The girl said she went last year wrapped in cellophane. She was a left-over.
  7. There, there, dear! (hugging and patting your back). You will do great!
  8. Just went to the "Gluten Free Gala" at HyVee grocery. For some reason there was a huge array of sweets to sample but nothing else. I did my best to sample them all! Some were extremely delicious!
  9. Rachelle, love the Lindsey idea with one of you as a cop or guard. Shroomies bird's must be thinking, " What the French toast happened here? We leave the humans in charge for a few months and they trash the place!" Just looked the birds up. J is impressed with the athletic ability. I like the long beaks.
  10. We all (4) order from the gluten-free menu at PF Changs. That way we can share and my picky guy can find one he likes ( beef with peppers )

    ARCHIVED Massage

    Massage lotions with wheat most likely won't bother your skin (a few people it does). What I would worry about is you are rubbing that oil/lotion into your hands as you massage (unless you wear gloves?). It would be hard to wash it off completely, I would think. Since most lotion is meant to stay on skin. Then you touch your food, or bite that annoying...
  12. Sometimes the Celiac labs have to go to another lab. First your office might send them to one lab that then sends them on to another. Also, my Peditrician said that some labs only run certain labs on certain days. For example, maybe only run celiac on Thur. Can't hurt to call this a.m. & see. Waiting is sooo hard!
  13. Funny how things go. My reflux kid never choked. Those were the days of propping to sleep on their sides and a brick under 2 legs of the crib to elevate. Would slide down the bed. . The one who didn't have this almost choked to death 3 times. Wouldn't eat baby food. Was choking. I jumped up & yanked his arms over his head to get him out of the...
  14. Haven't had it. I'm sure you will be fine. If it got stuck, it would be easy to get out. Relax. Let us know what the results are. Ask for a copy of the video.
  15. Which doc did you go to? Ob/ gyn or regular? Go to the other. Get tested for iron, b12 & d. Salt can cause water retention if that is what it really is. Diet & regular sodas and processed stuff have a lot of sodium. Have you tried not eating dairy for a couple of days? If you have a hard time digesting, it can make you bloated.
  16. We have a valve that opens to let food in and closes to keep food from going out the wrong direction. You have heard about adults with gastric reflux ( always advertising for meds). Babies can have this. In some babes that valve doesn't mature well. It can take up to 18 months and I believe it may be more common in boys but not sure. One of mine had...
  17. There using you to help them iron out the kinks.
  18. I bow down to Jess's exceptional compooter skills. I can't even figure out how to post a regular pic! ( would some one help me back up?...... Boys? M? J? Someone?)
  19. We had it and it was fine. It didn't get mushy like the Tinkyada seems to.
  20. Talk to your ob right away. The med might not agree with you. Seems like you feel worse when you have been up & going for awhile. I always got worse when I was tired or if I didn't keep a little food in me all the time ( blood sugar thing). Even if it's hard to eat, see if every hour or so you can slide in a spoonful of yogurt, Chex, cracker, fruit...
  21. said in a small voice whilst ducking: Its a lovely day here! low 65 high 75. Sunny. Will have to put phluids on the new grass seed.
  22. Sounds like a good plan, Calliope!
