It's more likely that you're dealing either with yet another allergy issue (dairy commonly accompanies gluten) or maybe some gluten found its way into your diet? Hard to tell. <br /><br />My kiddos just plain have sensitive skin.

I can never get her diaper rash to go away. We are a diaper free/EC baby during the day, but use cloth when out and a 7th gen disposable at night. What part of a cloth diaper does gluten come into play? This post was so interesting to me... I never even thought about disposables having gluten either. <br /><br />http://ecowahm.wordpress.com/Eco Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14599143739153485561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-75151906292464354942008-10-15T08:12:00.000-05:002008-10-15T08:12:00.000-05:00Hi!

We are a celiac family and found this thread when I was trying to figure out if disposable diapers do contain gluten . . . not that we even use them LOL. Anyway, I have a 1 y, 3 yo and 5 yo, and have only used cloth since the oldest was 3.5 months old. Have you considered exploring Elimination Communication? I was horrified at the idea of using cloth, but once we were aiming to catch pee and poo in a receptacle and not ALL in a diaper, well, then it just made sense.<BR/><BR/>See www.diaperfreebaby.org for more information about ways to explore EC for your family! BTW - we always use cloth backup in our implementation of EC.keilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14376298309992023139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-40046316569276788272008-09-09T17:15:00.000-05:002008-09-09T17:15:00.000-05:00Thank you so incredibly much!!!

Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Also, your blog rocks. 50% of the family is gluten free and milk free, so all the frugal tips I can gather are great.<BR/><BR/>My GF kiddos cannot deal with cloth diapers at all. Not sure why, but the diapers end up smelling *nasty*, and then the rashes appear. I've read somewhere that GF folks are more prone to rashes and things. Also, we deal with yeast a lot more than my non-GF kiddos.<BR/><BR/>So, I just say a little prayer over the diaper and ask it to be easy on the Earth. May sound crazy, but it makes me feel a lot better. :)<BR/><BR/>Congrats on #3 - it will be a blast. =)Kim E Uptonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559847423096636359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-49702364085525165532008-08-15T09:28:00.000-05:002008-08-15T09:28:00.000-05:00Thanks, Bev!

I happened to see your post and I wanted to tell you that I’m sorry for the confusion and for our delay in response to your email. Be assured that Pampers diapers do not contain gluten. I have a cousin who is gluten intolerant, and I know what she goes through to live gluten-free! If we can be of any further assistance, give us a call at 800-pampers (726-7377).

I really have no concrete answer. Jillian was always the kind of kid who needed very little discipline and Max ... wow ... totally different story. ;-) Right now I'm reading the LLL Adventures in Gentle Discipline and I'm learning much from that (and really like the book and the way it is formatted)<BR/><BR/> ... but I have a feeling that I have much to learn on this topic and I'm always asking other mothers about it myself.

If there are oats, it's a CYA to just list the other grains that they are free of. <BR/>Our evil ingredient here was corn, and Pampers and Luvs contain corn. Those were the only ones I checked on (and this was several years ago), but Rory wore White Cloud and Huggies with no problem. Daisy can ONLY wear White Cloud diapers and pull ups, and her only allergies are soy and some other legumes! Elliot also reacted to Pampers though, has been fine with other brands, and so far only seems to be allergic to eggs. AFAIK, there are no diapers with egg in them, lol.Amnestyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04476260199706597885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-50882634328480949032008-08-07T22:29:00.000-05:002008-08-07T22:29:00.000-05:00I agree on gDiapers... they rock.
