Thanks so much for all the ideas. They helped. Kristen

I am looking for a recipe for a rhubarb crisp or crumble. I have a ton of rhubarb and need to use it. I'd like a crust on the bottom and ??? for the top. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a 3.5 month little boy who was born almost 2 months early. He has severe reflux and is on multiple meds, sleeps in a wedge, and coughs and chokes often. I was wondering if this is common in babies who may have celiac? His sister (7) has celiac and his paternal Grandmother. I do not have celiac and do not eat gluten free and do exclusively nurse...

Thank you everyone for your input and advise. I really appreciate it. Kristen

Thanks for the response Fiddle-Faddle. I should have put that I am pumping every 3 hours and it is actually going quite well. They are adding the fortifier to my brestmilk at every feeding. He is taking both mixed together through his feeding tube. I feel like pumping is about all i can do for my little guy right now. Kristen

My DD has celiac. Neither my husband nor I have celiac but obviously one of us is a carrier. I just had a baby 7 weeks early and I was eating gluten free for the baby and I told the NICU NOT to give him anything with gluten. Well...I went in to visit him today and they have put him on a calorie fortifier to help him grow faster and IT HAS GLUTEN. I am...

Juliet - You mention having your son's TTC levels checked? Is this through a blood test and could it be done by the pediatrician? We have had zero follow up and I'd really like to be able to check and see if she is still getting gluten. Is that what it shows? Kasie

My daughter, age 5, was diagnosed 8 months ago with celiac and casein intolerance. Since going on a Gluten-free Casein-free diet she is off almost all of her meds and her behavior is much better. However, she still has a distended belly. SHe is quite thin except for her tummy. Sometimes she can look pregnant. I thought this was a symptom of the celiac...

My 5 year old daughter was diagnosed by Enderol as being celiac and casein intolerant in Sept. of 06. This was AFTER the pediatric GI specialist dismissed the diagnosis after positive blood tests and an inconclusive biopsy. We are now 8 months later and I'm wondering what medical follow up she should be having in relation to having celiac. We can't go...

Thanks so much. That makes a lot of sense. I appreciate the advice.

My four year old daughter was diagnosed with celiac and casein intolerant 6 months ago and has been doing well on a gluten free/ casein free diet. Our 2 year old son has not been tested yet but shows no signs what-so-ever. I had the bood test done and it was negative. My husband and I are now considering a third child and didn't know if it would be in...

I too would love any suggestions to spice up our meals a little. My four year old has celiac and casein intolerance and our whole family is eating gluten free/ CF due to her but our meals are getting very BORING. I think she is starting to get a little depressed over it. She was just diagnosed in Sept. of 06 so it hasn't been that long but the same old...

Most marshmellows that I've checked are fine, but I want to know about the turkey too, anyone????

This is our first gluten/casein free thanksgiving and my parents, in attempt to help, have decided to take everyone out for thanksgiving!!!! Needless to say this doesn't help at all. Now I am trying to cook my 4 year old a gluten free dinner AND transport it to the resturant without her knowing. She has only been gluten free/casein free for three months...

Is Children's Benadryl gluten-free and casein-free? I see on their website that they cannot guarantee it is gluten-free due to possible cross-contamination, but have others used this successfully?
