My C has gotten so bad with this pregnancy...so much worse. Prenatals and extra calcium haven't helped. I panicked when they told me my iron was down but they said if I took some extra C with my vitamins could help to maximize the amount of iron I get out of the vitamins so I won't have to take an iron supplement.

So anyway, I've had to take 6 heaping tablespoons of Benefiber, 2 Fibercon a at lunch and 4 Colace throughout the day! Of course, that's in addition to the insoluable fiber I get naturally in my diet. And finallllllly I'm going. Obviously I'll have to re-adjust the amounts after baby's born but in the meantime, it's just good to get things moving without too much pain.

Just seems like it's an awful lot. Doesn't it?

Hanging out at home today with my son (11) who just had oral surgery --4 teeth pulled this a.m. Poor guy!
