i understand where hes coming from reccomending extra calories thru fortisip as.its not bad cals (junk etc)
but he must think of the amount of vitamins etc like you say x
I mean the irony of it all is that I look very pregnant as I have a pot belly now and it shows more because I'm so tiny. It's like no matter what I eat it makes no difference, I'm sick of people telling me to just go and eat McDonald's and shit food like that, for a start I can't eat processed shit because I have to have a no histamine diet and even if I could that shit would not cross my lips anyway. I'm gonna try and stop worrying because what I eat is nutritious and full of the good stuff I need. Hopefully midwife will get back to me tomorrow so I'll hold off starting fortisips til then, failing that I have consultant on Monday. Hope all is well with you!! xxx
sounds like your body will need the vitamins while in the crucial stages. you are right about the vitamin queerie though.
you gaining weight isnt the overall issue hun, its ensuring a good oven for that baby..so right vitamins and fats going to them xxxx
At my booking in appointment I was referred to a dietician as my bmi was 16.7. I've managed to gain a couple of KG and it's now 17.4 but obviously I've still got a lot of weight to gain. I've been to GP today to try and chase up my referral as still haven't heard anything and he's put me on fortisips, so I took the prescription without giving it a second thought. I'm quite concerned that I should not be having this as I will be exceeding vitamin intakes with X2 these daily, prenatal vitamins and food intake. Trying to get hold of my midwife but this is easier said then done. I'm probably stressing over something trivial.
