Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 I just found out I am about 7 weeks pregnant (8 weeks tomorrow.) I do not have CD, but my son does. He was diagnosed 2 years ago at age 2 1/2. My question is, what should I be on the lookout for for myself? I developed a hypothyroid after having my son, so I do have an autoimmune condition already. And with my son having CD I know the odds of me getting it are pretty darn good (my husband and I have both been tested, both are negative so far...) Did anyone else get their CD after being pregnant? Did it come on after delivery, or during pregnancy? I just don't want to take any chances and so I figured I'd ask the experts!! Thanks everyone!!

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 Congratulations! Yes, I believe my CD was triggered by my 1st pregnancy. (Looking back I may have had some symptoms about 15 years ago) I very easily lost weight after my first baby...and not just the baby fat. It was after my second pregnancy that I became anemic, fatigued and depressed. That is how I discovered hypothyroid and celiac. > > I just found out I am about 7 weeks pregnant (8 weeks tomorrow.)
