anyone high risk due to past epilepsy and/ or celiac disease?
I just need some like minded ladies for comfort. Or similar situations. I'm 9 weeks today and I'm always nauseous unless I'm munching on something and it has to b wheat free its just so frustrating. And I was just told I'm high risk last wednsday bc I found an ob that actually gave a shit (finally, thank goodness) and she was asking all the same questions the last one did but was confused as to why my last ob seemed to dismiss my history of seizures even though I haven't had one in almost 9 yrs she said they could come back bc of the pregnancy. So now I'm trying to keep my stress level down even more bc I'm scared I'm likely to have seizure. Ugh.

@tiff87124, amazingly enough I am able to keep the prenatals down so that I have been doin right at least did u eat wheat at all during either pregnancy? If u don't mind me asking. I just stopped a couple weeks ago. I was horrible at keeping the diet. I had been wheat free for almost a year in November and then my gma died and right after a lot of bad things started happening in my life so I started eating wheat again bc I just didnt care anymore. But when I found out I was pregnant I stopped. It's even harder now bc of all the cravings of not just pregnancy but wheat withdraw .... its driving me nuts!! I'm doing well though as long as i keep munching all day the heartburn and indigestion stays away. Which is also from both the recovery and pregnancy. I hate it when ppl tell me Ohhhhh honey just eat crackers when u wake up for the nausea and in thinking ummmm yea that wouldn't help a Damn thing. Ughhhhh its so frustrating!
@emilyhershberger your name sounds so familiar how old r u? And how long have u been epileptic? I had two partial and one grand mail when I was 12 - 14 yrs old but none since then and I'm 21 now but the obgyn is still worried....
@cherise21588 yea I'm worried about that too. I used to b on 800 mg of tegretol twice a day so I really don't want to go back on those pills.
@tiff87124 I've been nervous about gatorade bc its considered an energy drink but I guess for us its essential? I'll go buy some today it'll be better than chugging water that's for sure. It makes me so nauseous.
@tiff87124 I just read the ingredients on powerade bc my fiance had some in the cupboard and apparently every flavor except Orange has modified food starch! Be careful! (That is if u try powerade over gatorade at any point) lol ill b shopping for gatorade soon though trusttttt me.
