im 31 weeks along in my pregnancy and had to treat my daughters kitten for fleas.

does anyone know if advantage is gluten-free?

and is it safe to be around in pregnancy?

i didnt think of any of this until my husband treated the kitty earlier tonight.... but would very much like to know if picking kitty up tomorrow will leave harmful residue on my hands!

Once the product is dry - then the cat will be safe to handle for both children and pregnant women. Hope hubby is changing the litter box for you while pregnant!

The products that are unsafe - flea collars! hate them. very toxic to young children and pregnant women...or "flea dips"...do not spray insecticides in the house. If fleas are noticed. Wash bedding in hot water, and laundry soap.

Once Advantage is absorbed - it no longer poses a risk for children or other pets. You have to keep pets separated after treatment for 2 hours to avoid one pet grooming another and ingesting the product orally.

This is the warning for people treating cats with advantage:

HUMAN WARNINGS:

Not for human use. Keep out of the reach of children.

Children should not come in contact with the application site for 30 minutes after application.

Causes eye irritation. Harmful if swallowed. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Avoid contact with skin. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and warm water after handling.

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      This might be helpful to you at this point:

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?
