Hello ladies ! Hope everyone is doing well.
So, about 3 weeks ago I had a doctors appointment with my dermatologist who's also a GP. After chatting he randomly suggested I have a gluten sensitivity and honestly when he said it, it made sense to me.
Before this pregnancy I would suffer from bloating , headaches and acne breakouts .. Never any digestion issues though . I always ate gluten and I would notice I would become very bloated after a lot of gluten (ex. Bagel, crackers , chips, pasta).
Anyway , since becoming pregnant I have suddenly become completely gluten intolerant .. it seems!
Now, if I have toast for breakfast I feel sick shortly after then throughout the day if I eat more gluten foods each snack and meal time I will feel SO ill, severe cramps and gas will ensue and then I'll have diarreah!
Today was particulary rough , I had cereal for breakfast then my friend and I were visiting and decided to order in food (nachos , deep fried pickles, the good stuff lol) and an hour later I felt like I was dying ! It was horrible.
So my question is , has anyone ever experienced a gluten intolerance during or after pregnancy ? Did it stay for good ?
I'm so overwhelmed thinking of going gluten free !
