Re: IBS and Pregnancy       02/20/05 07:10 PM Edit Reply Quote ribbit Reged: 08/26/04 Posts: 62 Loc: Longview, TX During my first pregnancy, my ibs just seemed the same. Two years after I had my son, my ibs went into "remission" and I barely had any problems until I became pregnant with my daughter and it came back with a vengeance. At least I thought it was ibs. I started to lose weight, I couldn't eat, until I went to this wonderful GI physician's assistant and she thought it might be reflux. When I was about 6 months pregnant, she put me on Aciphex for the reflux and I improved over night. I did not have any problems for the remainder of my pregnancy. She told me that when you have reflux (mine was caused by the weight of my baby pressing on my stomach) it can upset your entire GI tract. By treating the reflux the rest of the symptoms went away (bloating,diarrhea) Oh, and I did not have any of the common symptoms of reflux (the burning pain or acid taste) mine was asymptomatic (if you don't count the problems it caused in my bowels). hope this helps Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
