I know what you mean... I was scared of doing just that after spending an entire year of my life stabilizing with the IBS diet. Once I did, I had some problems (mainly estrogen-driven migraines), and had to deal with an increase of IBS symptoms during my period. But I kept my mind focused on the big picture - getting pregnant and having a baby! Pregnancy has actually been very kind to my IBS, it hasn't bothered me very much at all. Sure, during this third trimester I've struggled a little with gas and some C, but that's typical.
You've learned what you need to do to keep control of your IBS, so just remember all of that, and don't stray! I think you'll be fine! Just remember what your ultimate goal is!!
