Trader Joe's has gluten-free cornbread mix, stuffing, gravy and pie shells at this time of year. Whole Foods and Williams Sonoma has a lot of these, too. They definitely help!

Just be very wary.  The year I was newly diagnosed I planned an elaborate gluten-free Thanksgiving dinner.  I made gluten-free stuffing and gluten-free pumpkin pie with coconut milk (since I knew I had a problem with dairy  too) and homemade cranberry sauce etc.  I cooked like a fiend the day before Thanksgiving and tasted as I went, but on Thanksgiving morning I was so sick I could not get out of bed.  That Friday I called the doctor in a panic.  He told me to come in for bloodwork.  He ran a food sensitivity panel.  It came back positive, but so many of the foods were so highly positive the lab recommended traditional IgE testing. I saw the allergist and had the prick testing done, and then they drew blood to confirm the results after my back looked like one giant red welt within minutes of the prick test. 

I turned out to be highly allergic to yeast, cranberries and cinnamon, so my Thanksgiving dinner was like eating poison.  When he called with the results a few days before Christmas he asked what was for Christmas dinner.  I said, "Prime Rib."  He told me that was fine, but I should not eat it since I am highly allergic to beef.  We now have lamb, ham or a crown pork roast for Christmas dinner.  I still make stuffing, but use a gluten-free bread that contains no yeast.

      I'm a little confused. In your second post you said, "but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy" while in your most recent post you say, "I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet. However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea." CBC = Complete Blood Count. This is the typical bloodwork most people would have done routinely with an annual wellness checkup. I would include things like iron levels, various blood cell counts including reds and whites and other infection fighters. CMP = Complete Metabolic Panel. This would measure things like blood sugar, kidney...

      They did. I was doing a lot better on the AIP diet. However, I was unable to do the full reintroduction process because I went off the AIP diet when I got pregnant and was experiences chronic nausea. This is what makes me believe it's food related.  I do check all of my food products and supplements and I am very careful about them being gluten free and trying to stay away from corn starch etc. However, I am eating gluten free breads that sometimes have rice flour, yeast, etc. - I seem to do fine with these breads/bread products some days, but then am sick other days.  I have never really had any GI symptoms outside of bloating. My symptoms are dizziness, brain fog, and a general feeling of...

      Did the symptoms commence after you discontinued the AIP diet? Have you checked all nutritional supplements and oral hygiene products for possible gluten content? Have you recently checked all the labels of purchased processed foods in your pantry to check for formulation changes that might have introduced gluten? Historically, when "glutened" did you have GI symptoms or were you a "silent" celiac whose symptoms were non GI. Is what you are experiencing now like what you were experiencing at the time of diagnosis? Have you had recent blood work done (CBC and CMP) and if so, were there any parameters out of norm? I know you have Hashimoto's but you say that is...

      Hi Trent! Thanks so much for your warm welcome and questions! They do, but these symptoms have been ongoing for a long time before the pregnancy. However, it's hard for me to know what's a celiac response vs. a Hashimotos one. I haven't, maybe it's worth getting those checked again? 
    • trents
      Welcome to the forum, @Maura Gissen! Don't those same symptoms often come along with the territory when pregnant? And then throw in Hashimoto's.  Have you had your celiac antibody levels checked recently?
