The baby doesn't have a diagnosed allergy to wheat. She has a reaction of
unknown cause to wheat, which we think might be an allergy or might be celiac.
I'm not going to feed her wheat, despite some poster's suggestions, because I
see no point.

However, there's a *good* reason to try and determine whether she has a wheat
allergy or celiac - it's the difference between "have a rice muffin" and "you
can't have the special rice muffins that Grandma made just for you, because
Grandma buys the wrong brand of vanilla."

Under the guidance of her pediatrician, we're attempting to make that determination.
