Is it due to the fact that milk has protein that one should avoid it in coffee in the morning? And if so what about protein for the rest of the day? Do you know if there also is a limit then on protein in breakfast itself? This is something my doctor has not talked to me about? I too wonder about any protein? Since I take synthroid, do you know how that works,? You said it is a good idea to take all vitamins 4 hrs. after taking synthroid, could this be the same with protein?
Around the same time I first started noticing that my urine was quite frothy but only in the morning. Doctor did a random Urine test - 1 sample in the afternoon, this showed no protein. Blood urea and Blood Creatinine were smack in the middle of the normal range. Kidney ultrasound showed proper kidney size.
One week later I still see frothy urine every morning. I intend to get a 24 hour albumin and creatinine filtration check and also a BUN and plasma urea, creatinine test done.
I'm just worried because I was hospitalized a few days ago for contractions. Went in at 10pm and they didn't stop until 7am the next morning.
I can't eat very much bc of morning sickness. ..does anyone know of a protein shake that is safe for pregnant women?
Also smoothies with pregnancy safe protein were my best friend. My OB midwife/nutrionaliat suggested it...something about not chewing helps keeps nausea down and protein keeps it down too.
Hope you feel better soon.
I never get any protein in my urine. However, I noticed that I sometimes get trace blood in my urine. Never more than trace. Sometimes I can go a whole day or 2 without it. Or sometimes it will come and go in the afternoon or evening. However, it never ever shows up in my first urination of the day. I was taking an ibuprofen each night due to a back condition. But I stopped now out of fear. I do go to the gym, and it seems to happen more on gym days.
Also eat lots of protein before bed. Before you actually sit up in the morning eat some dried fruit or cereal or crackers, or pretzels something to that nature. Morning sickness is caused by lack of food on your stomach but do not eat anything that has dairy in it or is super heavy until after you make sure the morning sickness is gone for the time being.
I became so protein-calorie malnutritioned that I now must eat 70g of protein daily, mainly in plant-based proteins. My body was eating my muscles. I went to a nutritionist at Mayo and they set me straight. If I have no appetite. I can drink a protein drink every single morning and no matter what I have to eat 1600 calories. It has taken 2 years, but when threatened with a feeding tube you do what you gotta do.
That doesnt sound fun at all here are some tips that i used Eat something high in protein before going to bed. Helps your blood sugar stay more level.
Two crackers before your head leaves the pillow is old but wise advice.
Have sips of ice water as the urge to purge strikes. Many women say that this helps them keep meals down as well.
Flat Sprite® is supposedly great at keeping the stomach from churning.
Avoid foods and smells that seem to trigger nausea.
For about 4 days I have been completely symptom free and have been able to quit taking my Zofran! Most exciting part, just in time for the Holidays! I can grub down and not have to worry about running to the bathroom!! I am currently 11w 4d (which also means less than 200 days til my due date! Yay). Have any of you other ladies recently gotten over morning sickness and been as happy as I am?! Even my fiancé is ecstatic!
I also recently read that unisom, the sleep tablets are great for morning sickness. Read it in a pregnancy magazine so I think it is safe, might want to check with your doc. Another thing that helps a ton is trying to take naps or rest when you can, sometimes I get the most sick when I am tired!
Hope you are feeling better soon....
m 7 weeks and only recently started having morning sickness. I get really upset and feel light headed. Is this normal and what can I take to pass the nauseous feelin?
I'm 10 weeks and on zofran as well. I have had constipation that has had me in tears, but I'd almost rather break my arm than throw up again. Here's how im dealing... lots of water, stool softener, sopositories, natural laxative before every meal with is: equal parts prunes, prune juice, Apple sauce and whole bran in the food processor... two bites with every meal... and im still constipated, but it's not as bad. Try taking as little zofran as you can.
Though the report is just a qualitative analysis ( which means it doesn’t tell us the exact amount of protein in the urine), 2 + protein in the urine is certainly high. You need to be investigated further with urine micralbumin and 24 hrs urine albumin (quantitative analysis). Both tests can be done in the laboratory.
These tests would give us a clear idea about the quantity of protein in the urine.
