Hi! My name is Stephanie. I have three kids and currently pregnant with my fourth. I was diagnosed with Celiac when I was pregnant with my second baby because my doctor noticed my vitamin and mineral levels were so low. It was found I was not absorbing nutrients and I had celiac disease. There was minor damage to my intestines, however, surgery has not been needed.
Since then I have been trying to be gluten free. Sometimes, though, there are those hidden ones! I know when I've eaten something because some times within minutes I am bloated, have stomach cramps, and the inevitable diarrhea comes.
Being pregnant with celiac is hard because of those dang cravings!! I want things I know I can't have and it really bothers me. I have cheated before and ate things I shouldn't have. So, that's why I am here. To find recipes and ideas to keep me from indulging in the donuts!!

and I have a brand I buy at the local helth food store. Don't have any right now and can't come up with the brand, but its out there I promise.
Finally had my GI test run on Friday!
