More About My Daughter’s Gluten Free Sensitivity

breadMore About My Daughter’s Gluten Free Sensitivity

The gluten sensitivity was new to me, I had looked at it in the past. A friend of mine has gluten sensitivity. I had learned a little about it, but I didn’t go too in depth into it. I didn’t know what to feed my daughter. I didn’t know what to cook for her. I didn’t know what are the changes I had to make at home. Do I need to completely change my way of cooking? I was definitely overwhelmed.

Now, Looking back to the past several weeks, it all makes sense all the symptoms my daughter was showing. My daughter’s tummy was bloated often and she was gassy. I thought she was sensitive to certain starchy food. Char had a terrible rash on her bum. I was trying to figure out why she kept on scratching her bum. We were using a natural detergent so it shouldn’t have been the clothes or the detergent. There are times where it gets really bad. The only thing I can do is discourage her from scratching and constantly apply ointment. The day after Char’s doctor’s appointment she had a nose bleed which was another symptom. In the past, Char did have constipation, but I thought she was not eating enough vegetable. Also, recently she has been sucking her thumb probably due to she not feeling well due to her body had trouble digesting the gluten. This all seems to make more sense now. Char had gluten sensitivity and her body knows it. It is good to find out early on Char has gluten sensitivity to switch her to a proper diet. I would need to completely change my way of cooking and buy gluten-free products. I do find this a little stressful. At the end of the day, it is better to know than not know.
