[quote=Anonymous]question: is this really just a "soft belly" or could it be bloating? I had no personal experience with bloating, and thought one of our DC was getting a little pudgy (nothing to be concerned about, happens before they shoot up) bc they were slim in the arms and legs but had a bigger belly than you'd expect based on that. Turned out it was bloating, not pudge, and was due to undiagnosed celiac disease. Yes, I sound like I am an idiot, but had never really experienced bloating myself so was clueless; I am sharing this here in case there might be others out there who are clueless like me. (You can't always rely on the pediatrician either - they missed it as well; the CD diagnosis only came about when a mental health professional recommended screening for it due to DC's extremely high levels of anxiety (another often overlooked symptom btw).)[/quote]
