Too much protein during pregnancy

Common Questions and Answers about Too much protein during pregnancy

protein

Avatar m tn m eating per day. What I did notice, and since have changed, is that I was eating too much protein. My BG levels had crept up to 150 and I had started eating these low carb high protein bars as snacks. Once I stopped eating those my BG levels came down to the 130's. I have since reduce protein amounts and I'm seeing fasting numbers in the 120 and under range. Any one else experience higher BG levels with too much protein?
Avatar n tn You can try drinking a herbal ginger tea to help settle the nausea. Helped abit for me. Also try snacking on saltine crackers so your stomach doesn't stay completely empty... I lost about 20lbs when I first got pregnant, and am having a healthy pregnancy now at 29wks. Small sips of water to keep hydrated is also a good idea. Pedialyte is another good one to boost your electrolytes or watered down gatorade. hope you feel better soon!
Avatar f tn So now for this pregnancy im feeling it again. I lost so much weight for my 1st one for throwing up so much and im scared to go through this again for this one. I cant eat anything without feeling queezy afterwards and even water tastes absolutely disgusting. What can i do to lower my chances of throwing up everytime i eat or drink anything.??

How much weight you should put on depends on your pre-pregnancy weight (or BMI). MedHelp has applications that allow you to track your weight against how much you should gain. To see this, go to your home page (click My MedHelp). On the left, you'll see Applications. Click My Pregnancy and enter in your pre-pregnancy height and weight.
Avatar f tn Is there such a thing as too much sex during pregnancy? I know it helps induce labor, but I'm still early in my pregnancy and sex is always on my mind.
Avatar f tn Ok lafies, I'm really hoping someone has an answer or advise (that works) because I'm at the end of my rope emotionally here. I understand that blood engorgement in the pelvic region is normal and expected during pregnancy, but my man and I can't even have sex anymore. I'm over sensitive to any kind of touch, even cleaning after a potty break, I already have tons of micro tears that hurt, and penetration is uncomfortable and sometimes even painful.
Avatar f tn are you drinking a lot? i peed a lot during my 2nd pregnancy, but it also is a symptom of a uti, are you having any other symptoms?
Avatar f tn and i agree with alaysha, for yourself try not to stress during your pregnancy, it can cause you all sorts of physical discomforts on top of the ones that come with pregnancy to begin with. also, i voiced that concern to my doctor during my first pregnancy because i had a lot going on, and she said that it is actually GOOD to get that stress and have a good cry or something sometimes.
Avatar n tn Congrats on your little baby. And trust me that is completely normal to not have much appetite at that stage ..most people actually lose weight because of throwing up and loss of appetite and I was one of them, just the thought of food made me sick . It made me so nervous that I wasn't eating enough to nurture my baby but he was A OK.. I'm now 18 weeks and still barely eating much. So I wouldn't stress too much over it. Just made sure you are keeping hydrated.

Avatar f tn OK good and thanks lol my mother in law got it in his head that the baby will get stuck if I over sleep..
Avatar f tn at my last appt I weight 126 lbs... I have gained 20 lbs already!!!! I asked my Dr if I was gaining too much weight too fast and he said he advises women to gain 25 -30 lbs during the entire pregnancy.. but since I was under weight to begin with he wasnt too concerned.. and if I was worried I could walk.. aaaaanyways.. I am still nervous about it .
Avatar f tn Never heard anything about that. I didn't eat one my whole pregnancy and my son is completely fine and healthy!
Avatar f tn Of course it can be! Every pregnancy is different like im sure you have heard. I have some friends that get sick their whole pregnancy. Non stop morning sickness.
6789572 tn?1395629939 I know sex can be good during pregnancy and is safe to so but lately baby daddy and I have been well having a lot of it every time we get the chance it seems like we are doing something and it's more than once a day. Sometime like this weekend it gets a little rougher than baby would probably like. I felt like I was hurting the baby like there was too much pressure or something on him i dont know.
Avatar f tn I didn't think I was going to gain that much weight during my pregnancy bc I had only gained 5 pounds by week 20, well now I'll be 40 weeks on friday and I've gained about 50 pounds all together. It's completely normal to gain 30 bc that's water, baby, blood, uterus ect..
Avatar f tn t eat too many carbs or my sugar goes up and with too much protein I feel terrible too. I am at my wits end and I need help!!! I feel overwhelmed, so many health problems and I am scared all the time. I try not to think about it but I do. How do you stay up and positive and brave in the face of all this?
