Hi Michelle!

First off a HUGE congrats on your pregnancy!!

I would start off with the BRAT diet, bananas, applesauce, toast and tea first.

But at this time you have URGENT needs for good nutrition so I would speak to your OB/GYN RIGHT NOW!! At the very least you should be on prenatal vitamins and ask for some emergency supplements. You want a healthy baby!!

BEST to you dear! Your post broke my heart!

Heather, can YOU please chime in here? Thanks!

Originally diagnosed with IBS-C in Spring, 2008. During spring to fall of 2008, had at least 10 acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs. IBS went into remission. IBS returned in late July 2013 after taking 2 oral contrasts for a CT scan for cancer follow up. Had more acupuncture with different practitioner in summer 2014, but received little benefit.

Thanks for your reply! Im just trying to eat as bland and as healthy as possible but il phone my midwife this week and see if she has any suggestions. I usually find doctors are pretty useless when it come to ibs. They just dont get it at all. Im pregnant so this should allow me to pig out on cake and ice cream!instead il just stick to my rice cakes and banana. Haha.
