Thank you both so much for the advice. I have seen a lactation consultant and she does not think it is a foremilk/hindmilk imbalance but I did think of that. She tested my breastmilk and at the beginning of a feeding it has more fat than most formulas on the market.

I have stopped eating the chips so will see if that helps. I did notice that Rice Dreams said it contained gluten and I am using Pacific which states that it is gluten free. It is so hard as I do not have the reaction to the food to tell what could be causing it. I stopped buying bulk rice flour because I realized the risk of cc was incredibly high and that could be part of the problem. I am also taking the entire house gluten-free which is not making my husband very happy but I hope it will help.

Thank you both again. : :)

He can join my hubby....no really tell him he will pretty much eat the same ol stuff he normally eats (chicken,steak,pork..etc). I would allow him to have his own shelf in the cabnit with a few gluten foods that he can only have to take to work or when the kids are in bed. My hubby has on his shelf cookies, granola bars and cereal. My hubby basically only eats gluten free at home, but for his work lunch we still have regular bread. It takes time but the kids catch on and don't even ask for dady's bread or snacks. The hardest part is eatting out and my son wanting to sample off Daddy's plate when he has a gluten meal.

Same here with my hubby. He knew we had to do this for the kids, but he wanted to have his goodies too. He is my junk food eater and the kids loved him for it befor gluten-free. He had his stash in the bedroom and at night when the kids were off to bed he ate then. :rolleyes: In front of me who had to go gluten free also. Thats ok don't like sweets at all. give me fruit and i am happy as a little kid. B) I had so much stomic problems as a kid that candy and other sweets hurt me. Know I know why now but to this day I dont eat sweets and my 2 of my kids are the same. Ice cream they only eat two spoons fulls and thats that. but just understand it is hard on the men giving up foods just give them a spot to put it. my dh still has problems giving the kids stuff that could have gluten in it but it is a not on purpous and he has cried over glutenize the kids. I am the one that does all the food prep and shopping and still teaching him how to read lables. but when he takes the kids out for daddy time he loves to get them candy and thats when it happens. so now he makes them wait to come home so mommy can read the lable. So I become the meany. :blink: Well hope this give you a laugh Got to look at the light side of life and laugh or you just cry all the time. :P

Your baby is 5 mo. old, right? Mine were both teething at that time. Could there be any cross-contamination with items your child is teething on? My kids put their mouths on everything, when they were teething: the handle of a grocery cart, the back of their high chair, daddy's shoe, you name it! Gross, huh?

What about Grandma and Dad... could they be accidentally cross-contaminating? Sneaking gluten treats in, because they don't understand what celiac is all about? We had those issues at our house, so everyone in my family got a copy of Dana Korn's Kids With Celiac Disease for Christmas this past year.

Most importantly, when you're the mom in charge of a kid with celiac, it's sometimes very exhausting. Heck, just nursing a healthy non-celiac kid is exhausting, right?! But don't give up. It get's easier. It really does...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Manaan2 · Posted

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Potato Intolerance

      By Jordan23 · Posted

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Doris Barnes · Posted

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
