    There's a couple reasons I would want an accurate test. First off, it will let you know how careful you need to be. Do you have to be hyper-vigilent about cross-contamination, etc. Second, because Celiac is genetic, if you have children you will need to have the tested periodically for it. If you find out you don't have Celiac, then there's no need...

    If he's not sensitive to gluten he won't have a reaction to it just because he hasn't had it for 4 months.

    I would guess there is another intolerance there. My DD is also sensitive to sunflower and we would have never guessed it unless we did a food sensitivity test. When she eats it she has a horrible time falling asleep and will wake up several times in the night.

    We are in the process of getting a diagnosis of Celiac for my 2.5 year old. She started breaking out in a pretty classic DH rash at about 18 months when exposed to high quantities of gluten. Now she will break out in it from a single goldfish cracker. We absolutely will not put her on gluten for weeks and weeks to do the blood test of gut biopsy...

    I'm so sorry! My DD has the same type of problem. She has potty accidents (just pee thankfully) all over the place within minutes of being glutened.

    My DD is 2.5 years old. On gluten she takes forever to get to sleep. She is irrational, can't calm down, very distressed. She will wake up multiple times in the night and take a long time to get back to sleep. Lots of crying no matter what we do. Off gluten she takes a few minutes to get to sleep. Sleeps all night. Wakes up happy.

    My DD is a disaster on gluten. Her behavior does a complete 180 when she is exposed.

    I was going to say the same thing, butt paste shouldn't be used with cloth diapers! CJ's butter is great though and is cloth diaper friendly.

    Just so you know, my DD reacted to gluten via breastmilk. I know I'm just one person and not a study, but it is possible. Also, because she has DS they may try to wisk her away after birth and start testing and such. I would INSIST that this be delayed at least an hour so that you can have lots of skin to skin time as that has been shown in study after...

    My DD has some reactions almost immediately and then they continue for 24-48 hours. If it was a lot of exposure she also will develop a rash on her backside and legs usually the following day that lasts for several days.

    We use Vital-zymes and they are made by Klaire Labs. My DD loves them. As far as probiotics go, the more strains of bacteria the better.

    My DD's is really loose. She is potty trained and uses a little potty that I have to dump out. It's almost always a mess to clean out because it's not solid like it should be. We just recently went 100% gluten-free with no cross-contamination, so I'm hoping that will get better soon. As gross as it would be, pics might be helpful so we could all...

    My DD is 2 and she started showing symptoms around 12 months old that got increasingly worse around 18-24 months.

    I would start with a food journal for him. Try it for a month and see if the behavior or stools tend to happen based on what he's eaten.
  15. CrunchyChristianMama
    Why would they question Enterolabs results? Getting in to her ped is a pain. He is so well liked that it takes several months to get an appointment and then you end up waiting at least an hour past your appt. time to get in. We mostly just see a naturopath that is a friend of mine, but she doesn't see any need to do any further testing or to verify...

    The person who responded to your thread on there needs some serious Celiac education!

    This is my first post on this board and I am so thankful to have found it! My DD is 2 years old (b-day Sept. 21). When she was 18 months old we suspected something was up with her. She was TINY (only gained 1-2 lbs. in 9 months). She never had solid stools, though they weren't totally runny either. Then she started getting this horrible rash on her...
