    She really is too young for a celiac panel.. My understanding is that they don't concider them accurate till about two years old.. The best thing to do is to keep up with the diet changes as long as they are helping her then do it. Lord knows you need sleep. Then when you start introducing solid foods keep a food journal.. what she eats and how it effects...

    You have had the antibody tests done did they actually give you the numbers or just tell you they were negative? Also did you have the DNA test done? Like you have been told you could have the gene and not have the antibodies as of yet. Also if they did not actually give you the numbers or a copy of the report request it.. you could have a low positive...

    when we were gluten free before having to go back on gluten for testing... (good for you for doing it right) We typically had gluten free cereal for breakfast or eggs, yogurt and fruit. I also got Van's gluten free waffles. Lunch I lucked out because he doesn't really eat sandwiches. so I would give him the insides of the sandwich.. the meat and...

    See if you can find some soft corn tortilla shells.. double check the ingrdients! Those can make good sandwiches. Presumably as he is on a gluten free diet his teeth should improve and his sensitivities may lessen, but that is a real issue! Rice cakes do make great sanwiches and they are not too hard and not too soft! they should be just right! I grew...

    Well the doctor ordered a colonoscopy for my two year old. It's movement.. on a reluctant doctors part. I guess I should be a little happy. Not looking forward to putting him through another procedure but the endoscopy went fine so I am sure this will too. I really want to get him to draw for the blood test while he is in there.. if nothing just to amuse...

    Kindness, Don't worry if they look at you like you are crazy! They do not live with this child 24/7 YOU do. YOU know your child!!!! There is no one on earth who knows her better. YOU are the expert on your child and don't let anyone tell you different. I can sympathise with you! It is very hard to try to weigh out other's opinions and get to the root...

    You could try www.pecanbread.com for some gluten free dairy and egg free recipes that are pretty kid friendly. Hope this helps! Denise

    There are some good gluten-free and dairy free recipes at www.pecanbread.com and they try to be kid friendly recipes. Try to just stick to plain foods. I got the gluten-free cereal and some cookies to start. I also got a bag of the gluten-free pancake mix. Beyond that I just stuck with plain old home cooked foods. Used corn startch to make gravies, and just...

    Does it account for children who have bottles supplemented in their diet? Or are they all exclusively breast fed? I am convinced that the gluten gets through. I noticed a seriously marked change in my own son when I went gluten-free for two months. Now I went back on gluten after he was 6 months old and he seems ok with it now but it has not been introduced...

    Oh that is wonderful! I am glad that you guys figured out a way to get that blood draw on the youngest. Are you working through a children's hospital? When we took out little guy in for his biopsy the children's hospital was terrific. They showed him everything, got a doctors hat for Dad and a nurses hat for me.. showed him the mask and all.. he's two so...

I have not had any attacks lately, but I sure can relate to Sarah!! I have been several times crawling around on the floor because of an attack and I was pregnant and wanting to fall on the steps. Scary! Right now I...

    NeDrz, stick with the basics.. meat fruit and vegetables also cheeses if you can tolerate them. There is alot of variety just among those things if you give it a try! You can do it!!! Denise

    We just went through a biopsy with our son in January. It went fine. We did it at a childrens hospital. Ask as many questions that you need to to feel comfortable. Keep a brave face on for your little guy before hand it will help him alot to see you positive. The proceedure should take only about a half an hour, they should put him under completely for it...
