ARCHIVED Any issues with Canyan Bakehouse bread?
gemlechner posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So my whole house is 100% gluten free. My daughter keeps getting glutened and I'm not sure from where. She is only 4 and not in school and nobody baby sits her (I'm a stay at home mom). We have been to a few birthday parties this past month but I was sure I monitored everything and made sure I brought/made gluten-free food. The only thing that seems to make... -

ARCHIVED Need advice on gluten and childs behavior
gemlechner posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My heart is so broken. We cut gluten out of my child's diet because she was chronically constipated, in doing so we discovered that while not ingesting gluten she went from crazy temper tantrums that I thought were a normal part of age 3 to a happy easy to please kid. I guess out of laziness and both mine and my husbands family thinking we were nuts and just... -

ARCHIVED Other Lab Tests? Protein Levels...c3 &c4
gemlechner posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My 18 month old is very tiny she is in 1% for weight. She had diarrhea and constipation. Because she is so little the doctor ordered lab work her protein, c3 & c4 are low. So I upped her protein in her diet and they tested for protein in urine and a renal ultrasound. Thankfully her ultrasound came back good and there is no protein & blood in her urine... -
ARCHIVED How Long Before Changes Are Seen?
gemlechner posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My daughter has not been tested yet. She suffers from horrible constipation. A gluten free diet helps, but every now and then something clogs her up again. I know every situation is different but how long after going gluten free did some of you see/feel changes? -
ARCHIVED Constipation, Poor Tooth Enamel, Anemia
gemlechner replied to gemlechner's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
We have not got her tested yet....that is our next step. When she is gluten free she does well but every now and then something clogs her up again. It would be nice to have that diagnosis...or not. -

Go to facebook and join the group parents against mirilax. Their advice has helped us tremendously with constipation. We also stopped eating gluten -
ARCHIVED Toddler With Chronic Constipation...please Help
gemlechner replied to gemlechner's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Did The GI make you do an endoscopy? or anything like that? And once he was gluten free are his symptoms gone? How well does he tolerate corn? I think her constipation could be gone but she is afraid to go, made GI appt but 1 month away. Thanks for the advise! -
ARCHIVED Toddler With Chronic Constipation...please Help
gemlechner replied to gemlechner's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
She doesn't have a bm unless given an enama or senna tea. I think we have been gluten-free long enough but I think the prob now is she is scared to go. I'm trying everything to help her go without using mirilax because that stuff is really bad. But I'm starting to get desperate. I see her everyday having the erge to go and then she fights it. So I feel that... -

ARCHIVED Is Corn O.k?
gemlechner posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

ARCHIVED Toddler With Chronic Constipation...please Help
gemlechner posted a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
O.k so I know the best thing to do is bring my baby to a GI dr. but after talking it over with her primary we decided before she goes through any crazy tests we should try a gluten free diet. My poor baby has been constipated since she was 8 months old we have tried everything from senna, prunes, tons of juice & enama's all of which relieve the constipation... -
ARCHIVED Constipation, Poor Tooth Enamel, Anemia
gemlechner replied to gemlechner's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thank You for your kind words. Our plan is to keep a log of what she eats and when she poops. And we are cutting out gluten to see if that changes anything. Her teeth are a mystery to us too.... besides raisins and juice I never felt like she had anything bad enough for her to get a brand new tooth and 2 months later there was decay on it. Thanks again! -

So my 2 year old has been constipated since she was 8 months old...(when I started her on oatmeal) Since she was 8 months old we cut out and added all sorts of food items to see if any change could help relieve her constipation........ Looking back I think we never cut anything out long enough...we would only go for about 3 days to a week. So we gave her... -

She has chronic constipation, low Iron and horrible dental problems... In the past we cut out gluten for a week with a little result... Now we are going to try to cut it out for at least 1 month and...
