  1. I am so glad you brought this up! We are in almost the exact boat. I have a 2 1/2 year old boy with celiac and 23 weeks preg with #2. I havent even started to think about how I am going to feed the next one. Still working on what to feed the one that is here...lol. I get so lost sometimes still. I never even thought of checking formula or of me being...
  2. Thank you! I looked all over that stupid web site and never saw that page. This will be a great treat for a two year old through the summer. Stephanie
  3. My two year old has been gluten-free for 6 mths now and still has really soft poop. Sometimes they are normal but mostly soft. I think he is still healing and we are still learning what he can have. lol. Being that he is two he cant really tell us when something makes him feel bad. But like you said everything else improved very quickly. He is running...
  4. I had the same problem the other day! Those trucks play their music so loud! lol. My little one got the red, white and blue rocket pop and he seemed ok. But it did turn him blue and was very hard to get off. Makes you wonder what is in the food coloring. I am trying to find out if the "fla vor ice" pops are gluten free now. Wanted to keep them...
  5. I HATE seeing the words "spices" and "natural flavoring" ... that is so general. Shouldn't even be allowed on a label!!
  6. My husband bought a bag from a gas station a while back and we noticed it had wheat listed in the chocolate pieces.
  7. Do you know about the glue sticks that are purple till you apply the glue then they turn clear? I think it might be crayola? Also, do I need to look into finger paints?
  8. Thanks for the help. This will be my first trip since finding out my son has celiac and I am freaking out a bit. He is two so he can be a bit picky with his food! We are staying in a condo that has a full kitchen so I am going to pack a cooler of his food but I know everyone will want to eat out at least once. Guess I just need to do some homework. Is...
  9. Does anyone know if glue is safe? Glue sticks or regular Elmers glue? My two year old is doing crafts in school and I was unsure about the glue. Thanks for any help! Stephanie
  10. I see this was posted awhile back but I was wondering how eating in gatlinburg went? My son is celiac and we are going to gatlinburg next month and I am worried about places to eat. I will be taking alot of his food but I am sure there will be times that we are out and will need to grab something to eat. Any info you have will be great. Stephanie
  11. I bought a Wheat free soy sauce for my son... would that be gluten-free too? It has water, organic soybeans, salt and organic alcohol. Thanks for any help.
  12. Hey! I just got the flyer for the meeting in December. Its the 12th. I am going to try really hard to go but being so close to the holidays I might not be able to. Hope to see you there! stef. stephanie
  13. Is wheat free soy sauce ok? Why doenst it say gluten free and what is the difference? I bought some soy sauce that says wheat free and I am scared to use it. stef.
  14. I just tried the GFpantry bread mix too and loved it. A bit heavy but SSOOOO much better than the frozen stuff I had bought. Glad to know the brownies are good too! stef.
  15. I can send you the list they sent me. As for why they were not helpful... I dont know. They were very helpful to me and I got the gluten-free list within a few days of asking for it. I am sorry you had such a bad experience with them. stef.
  16. Thank you for posting that information! I am going to print that for my grocery store notebook Who knew I would need a notebook to go to the grocery store!!!
  17. I guess they have gotten better! I sell Avon and also have a son that I am trying to make a gluten-free home for. Though he doenst wear makeup I have Avon everything in the bathroom I share w/ him. So I wrote them and asked for a list of their gluten-free items.... They were very nice about it and sent me a huge list and suggested if I need a certain...
  18. So have you been to one of those meetings? Are they any good?
  19. You will not believe this... I just got back from CVS and all they had in Tylenol was the flavors that had not been tested! So i ended up with motrin. Do you think the store brands are ok... or just have to call them? Might try the CVS website. stef.
  20. Glad you posted this! My son has a fever today and I had no clue what I could give him... we are very new at being gluten free! My other question is can being "glutened" cause a fever? His school gave him crackers yesterday....agrrrr. He seemed to feel fine yesterday and last night... though he said his belly hurt.... but today a high fever. It might...
  21. My sons dr just refered us to the dietician from St. Francis listed in this thread. I am going to try to make an appt w/ her next week or the first of the following week. The dr. did mention that she had a celiac support group. If I find out any more information about the groups after meeting w/ her I will post it.
  22. We are going through the same thing!! Our son has been gluten-free for 2 weeks and now he has energy! He is running and playing and doing all of the things he never had the energy to do before.... On the downside he has the energy for "fits". He has never really acted out before and now...! He has started trying to hit and crying and not listening....
  23. I talked to a lady at Earth Fare the other day and she said she thought there is a group in Charleston but she didnt have the info right there. I told her I would come back and check to see if she found it. I havent heard of anything else in this area. Stephanie
  24. Thanks to everyone for the support! Its just so much to learn... way more to learn than I thought it was going to be. This fourm is a huge help though. This is a great support group.
  25. I too have a 22 month old that has celiac. We just got the results back today that said for sure but when the dr mentioned it and I looked it up... I knew that was it. He has the biggest belly and has no energy at all. I just want him to be able to play with the other kids. He will watch them. It is so sad. I am not sure how long he has had it... probably...
