ok, a bit extreme title but oh well, i really DO need help...im addicted to pickles, sour chips, corn nuts, anything and everything that's sour and/or a bit spicy. I had been told by one of my nurses that it was OK to eat that stuff unless it gave me heartburn. Well it doesnt, so i eat ALOT of it on a daily basis.
Today i went to my dr. cause i had a question about something else and the other nurse told me NOT to eat ANY of that stuff cause it could harm the baby. Well, it's too late now girl!!!! Im trying NOT to eat that stuff, but i really can't help with w/ my cupboard full of chips and a pickle jar in the fridge.
Have any of you girls eaten this stuff obssesively druing pregnancy?? C'mon, someone relieve me of this PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! = ( ↓

i always thought heartburn and indigestion were pretty much the same thing... i could totally be wrong though. my guess is they are concerned with the salt content of that food.
i found a website that talks about the benefits of salt and water though. so check this out if you are feeling guilty haha!

| oh another thing....ok, it's embarrassing but...yea, i have a yeast infection, from what i hear they're pretty common. I've never had one before, so does that mean that it's gonna keep coming during the pregnancy?? cause that cream they gave me and no sex for a week sucks....it really really sucks ↑ |
| Name: newmomma01 | Date: Apr 18th, 2007 1:37 AM |
| ive never had one myself but i heard they are pretty common in pregnancy and it just depends on the person how often you get them. some people get them more often than others. kinda like uti's. which i have had a couple uti's and they really really suck. ↑ |
| Name: Coartney | Date: Apr 18th, 2007 1:39 AM |
| i had one at about 16 weeks, on my "honeymoon" lol so no sex, i didnt really want it anyways i was still grumpy about everything then lol.. and oh no, no more kids for me, no thank you. lol ↑ |
