Celiac disease makes a healthy pregnancy challenging, but with a strict

gluten-free diet, pre-pregnancy testing for nutrient deficiencies and the

support of an RD to ensure a balanced gluten-free diet, it's absolutely

possible.

While all babies of parents with Celiac disease are at increased risk of

developing Celiac disease themselves, breastfeeding, timing and quantity for

introduction of solids and more can affect the babies' risk of developing Celiac

later in life. We'll talk about the current research as well as ongoing studies

relevant to clients on a gluten-free diet.
