RE: help, I'm 4 weeks pregnant

[Guest guest]

Okay first of all -- breathe! It will be okay. YOu are over a year out.

Even when you got pregnant you were a year out -- about the same time as

what i was. What not to ingest? Okay avoid shellfish, alcohol, cigarettes,

the same things any normal expectant mother is told to avoid. Raw eggs (due

to salmonella), lunch meats (due to listeria), etcetera and so forth.

Medications need to be limited but you can talk that over with your ob. Your

12 year old is not going to be happy? Well you might be surprised.

Seriously. I am not trying to make light of this but you can have a normal

pregnancy since you are past the fast weight loss. The women here will help

you through it provided you want to keep the baby.

The first thing you should do is contact your surgeon (if you trust him/her)

and find an OB/GYN. Make an appointment to get a blood test and schedule the

first ultrasound. Okay?

Congratulations!! I had my surgery June 9, 2000 and my only child will be 12 in

September and believe me she wasn't happy when I got pregnant. But if you help

involve them (like I told my daughter she could decorate the nursery all

herself) it will help them accept it better.

You will do fine with this pregnancy and we are all here to help. My OB told me

she wanted me to get 70 grams of protein a day and make sure I eat every 2 hours

(which I find impossible since I'm still full after 2 hours). Make sure you

take your vitamins and find an OB who understands your surgery and how your

nutrition differs other pregnant women.

Good luck!!

Why not eat shellfish? That's a new one on me and I've been eating shrimp

like crazy. Can that hurt the baby?

According to one of the parenting magazines (either Parenting or Parents)

they stated that there is a SLIM MINISCULE chance that accumlated mercury

could cause you to get sick -- that also holds for other fish. Or maybe I am

just confused and it holds for other fish (tuna and shark and such) but

because i am allergic to shellfish (though I love it like crazy) I am

jealous and projecting. I know that makes it clear as mud.

Well, my sister ate crabs her whole pregnancy, and I have had shrimp a

couple times and steamed crabs a couple times. I would say eat in

moderation and don't eat anything that seems not fresh either.

oh I know I was shocked when I found it out before. I just found the

cracker stackers and they are perfect although sometimes I can't even eat

all of that.

You wouldn't think that little bit of food would be so high.

Plus I only eat half the cheese, so I lie to myself that its less

fattening : )

Some lunch meat from what I have read has been found to have something

called listeria (a type of bacteria) in it which can cause you to get ill.

Check with your OB but I know that lunch meat (certain types) it is best to

avoid. This is according to the parenting mags I read.

I have been told by a nurse.........not to eat certain kinds of fish, but not

to avoid them all together. You shouldn't eat bass, walleye, shark,

swordfish, orange ruffie, macral, tuna (including canned), pike and some

other large fish. They can be high in mercury which can cause problems in

development of the babys nervous system. I was also told that you can eat

things like fish sticks, cod, etc. Also you can eat shell fish...shrimp and

crab, as long as it is cooked! The advise to limit your servings to 10-12

ounces a week.

The nurse also told me about a website to check out (haven't looked at it yet

myself), but both are supposed to tell about fish recommendations.

www.fda.gov OR www.epa.com.

Hope this helps.
