After reading the latest newsletter, I decided to post my experience with being pregnant with IBS. Up until I was pregnant, I had IBS with diarrhea with large doses of dairy, any caffeine and certain foods like tomato sauce. When I first found out I was pregnant at 3 weeks along, I felt better than ever but two weeks later I discovered that being pregnant with IBS is not fun. Until I was 14 weeks along, I couldn't have ANY dairy, no tomato sauce and nothing acidic of any kind! I was miserable. THEN, I hit 14 weeks along and didn't have any symptoms at all. I was in heaven! Unfortunately, I lost my baby at 20 weeks so I don't have any information on how the rest of my pregnancy would have gone but I do know that in the last month since I gave birth, my IBS has NOT come back. I am able to eat and drink dairy and caffeine without the symptoms. Just thought I would pass along my experience with this since the subject did come up in the last newsletter.
