askimomc,
You know, we had a similar experience. My daughter's allergist suggested oats as a wheat alternative. The her pediatrician said absolutely NOT - that oats contained gluten.
It seems to be controversial. Supposedly the grain itself does not contain gluten (although I've read otherwise) so I always just tell people that yes, it does, and to avoid it if they're trying to avoid gluten.
I see, too, that there are also "gluten-free" brands but we haven't tried them yet.
So, thanks for your answer! You are right!
Here's the next one:
