Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Bluedragon just a question?

Thanks for both of your posts. I just saw a dr. yesterday (my dr. is on maternity leave..) and I asked her about the calcium. She said that I should try to eat soy products as much as possible (cheese, milk, yogurt) and that I should also be getting enough vitamin D. The prenatal vitamin has been making me feel so nauseous (I hear you Emmasmom!) She suggested that I take the folic acid seperately every day and that I only take the prenatal every other day. At least until I don't feel sick taking it anymore. But I also have to really watch my diet and make sure I'm eating enough from all the food groups. I just found a midwife this a.m. and my first appointment is on the 12th. I'm really looking forward to it because I know they have a huge understanding of nutrition. I have a gazillion questions to ask. My MIL just gave me a book titled "CalcYUM" by David and Rachelle Bronfman.. It's a Canadian book but it has lots of great information about greens and how much calcium they provide, etc. The best part is that it is full of recipes! I'm going to try a few this week.
