Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi! In response to getting enough nutrients while pregnant with IBS...go to these two links I've added and print off the food lists. Then read about how to prepare them and what to eat them with. When you eat soluable fiber, such as rice, white bread, or pasta,with your vegies, eat small portions at a time, and graze on them safely through out the day.

My major advice is: study Heather's diet, know it well, and present it to your OB/GYN or primary care doctor for now (if you haven't already). (Because we must be healthy first in order to get pregnant) Finally, I highly recommend liquid vitamins. You can get a prescription or Centrum now has a liquid vitamin at your local drug store or Walmart. Especially if you have IBS with diahrrea. Be persistant with your doctors regarding your nutrition concerns. My experience with doctors is that they can let your diet slip through the cracks. Maybe they can refer you to a nutrtionist through your insurance.
Here are those links. http://www.helpforibs.com/diet/fiber1.asp & http://www.helpforibs.com/diet/fiber2.asp You can also do a search on the message board. Type in Pregnancy and IBS, and do a "within the last year" search. I know there is stuff on here. Best wishes
