Okay ladies. my granny thinks it is a good idea for me to get some ensure and drink one a day to give my baby nutrients it needs because I can't eat I'm so sick half the time. she keeps saying my baby is going to be unhealthy. I think it's a good idea but I'm scared of gaining a ton of weight as I'm already overweight. I was on it with my daughter but I wasn't even 100 lbs when I was pregnant with her that's what helped me gain weight with her. but I had to drink 4 to 5 a day with her. this would only be one. thoughts? she has me freaking out that my baby isn't going to be healthy, I'm worried sick over it
the baby takes the nutrients it needs from you so if anyone become malnutritioned it a be you but yu worried it wont hurt to drink it ensures dont make you gain weight it helps you maintain your weight yu eat more calories eating one regular meal then drinking one ensure
@elamsmommy, I was trying to stay active but I have sciatica nerve I can do nothing now. it's miserable. when I can eat i try to eat healthy but most of the time it's saltines and water for me. thank you!
@39surp thank you!
Drink it to get the nutrients, if you are worried about gaining weight stay active or eat healthy foods! But i wouldnt worrie too much :)
same here! lol! I was starting to walk 3 miles a day, 7 days a week then got pregnant n summer hit, so it was Uber hot with twins I couldn't do it anymore lol so now that it's over lol I can start on me now!!! :)
@carlismommy12, it's making my husband mad because he knows it's freaking me out he keeps telling me the baby will be fine. I may try it to make myself feel better.
Don't freak out. My daughters dad would say the same to me but she was 100% healthy. she's now almost 4 years old. You can try the ensure just to make your self feel better.
@twinmamma2015, exactly that's what I tell myself is after I have the baby I can work on me. it's just depressing and this pregnancy was not planned I wanted to lose some weight before we got pregnant but it didn't happen but I wouldn't trade this baby for the world I'm in love already. thank you so much!
@emeliaday, I was going to talk to her. I had to switch my prenatal vitamins because I couldn't keep them down and these seem to be better i just have to take them when I feel my best through the day.
I'm overweight myself, but now I can work on losing the weight I gained and more but it helped my boys come out healthy. For twins neither one of them had to be in the NICU, so to me it was worth it. Good luck hun!! :)
@carlismommy12, yes I agree gross lol. that's what I keep thinking and I read that in my baby book. I have bad anxiety so I'm freaking out
Talk to your doctor. If you are taking your Prenatals and keeping them down baby has all the nutrients it needs that early.
With my daughter I was constantly sick. I lived off sprite and instant potatoes (gross lol) for weeks. The baby takes what nutrients it needs from you. Your baby will be healthy. don't worry.
you welcome
