Nutrition and pregnancy

[Guest guest]

Hello,

My daughter had surgery a little over a yr and a half ago. I

joined this group because I'm a Mom and Mom's just never stop taking

care of their babies. My " baby " is 29. I have learned alot from these

groups. Valuable info that I pass on to her. When she first had her

surgery she was so sick. Her Dr told her that it was to be expected.

The group I was in at the time suggested lactose intolerence and

bingo!! She felt well within days. I know that her Dr is not a

reliable source for her health. She is now pregnant (12 wks) It was a

huge surprise! My concern is nutrition and the problems that weight

loss patients face. There doesn't seem to be a place where people can

go and be treated as with special needs or by someone who knowshow

to treat them. There aren't many medical people with the knowledge of

the nutional needs that have to be monitered. I worry about these

complications down the road so I am forever looking and learning what

ever I can. I would like to find a nutrionist that she can work with

to keep her health at its best. I wish you all well and I will be

here learning from you all. Pam

Your daughter should work very closely with her obstetrician about

taking supplements. Vitamin E supplements can be harmful to the fetus.

She will also need to take folic acid supplements. Take supplements

under a doctor's supervision if you are pregnant or might be pregnant
