 I am a 34 year old  celiac (dx'd last april) on g-f diet.  Until recently
I had felt unready and too sick for pregnancy, but now am thinking about
preparing to have a child in the next year or so.  I am very concerned
about whether or not I absorb and/or have enough folic acid, calcium and
other nutrients to nurture a strong healthy baby.  Are there tests to check
these things?  Why do my doctors act like this is irrelevant? Is there a
special regimen I should follow?  Do you know of articles I should read?
How can I convince my doctor to do appropriate tests? Are there other
things I should be considering as well?  I will summarize.
 
Thank you in advance!
