Pregnancy Induced Wheat Allergy

A couple months before Emerson was born I started breaking out in hives and honestly I didn't think anything of it until it KEPT happening. A month after Emerson was born I started paying attention to the things I ate and started noticing that nuts and wheat were what I ate most and since both are common allergies, I cut both out of my diet (or did the best I could-it's really hard). After a few weeks of doing this I started eating nuts again and no hives yet and then I added wheat back into my diet and voila, hives. So, yes, this is a self diagnosis, but who knows my body better than me!? Anyway, John and I are both hoping this will disappear after a prolonged period of an absence of wheat in my diet. So far, it hasn't been too bad and I have definitely had to try new things. I tried a loaf of bread made out of rice flour and almond flour; it was too spongy for me. Bread has been the hardest to substitute; I really like wheat bread. Anyway, I think we will all survive. We went out to Carl's Jr. with some friends after church on Sunday and everything on the menu had wheat with it. I asked the person at the counter what he thought and it turns out he had a wheat allergy too! He told me he gets a burger wrapped in lettuce, so I tried it too and it was really good!
