OH CRUMBS SEASON 2 EPISODE 1 - FEATURING KERRY BLUNT (aka Mum of The Coeliac Princess, Immy)

Oh Crumbs - The Gluten Free Podcast. A podcast about all things gluten free, coeliac disease and staying positive despite your dietary requirements. By gluten free bloggers Sarah Howells and Laura Strange. 

This week we spoke to Kerry Blunt, Mum to our favourite 4-year-old Instagram superstar Immy - aka @the_coeliac_princess. This was SUCH a good insight into life parenting a coeliac child! From Immy’s diagnosis after a scary A&E trip, to prescriptions, starting nursery and school, residential trips, play dates, sleepovers and more. 

Kerry also shared lots of gems about cooking gluten free for the whole family, navigating eating out and family holidays, and how she helps host a local coeliac group as a safe space for gluten free kids and their parents to connect. Whether you have a coeliac child or gluten free yourself, Kerry has SO many tips and tricks we loved hearing about so we hope you’ll find this episode super helpful and relatable!
