Okay I have a few questions I am 20 weeks
pregnant. When I eat dinner it feel like
I have horrible indigestion but after like
a few hours it goes away and then I feel
nauseous and have to eat again. I was
just wondering if it was normal to feel
this way after I eat b/c I didn't think my
insides were push up that high already?
Also I was wondering how far along are you
supposed to be when like your hands and
feet swell?

Almost everything is normal during preg.
Try not to fill yourself up and try to see
if there are certain foods that really
give you indigestion. I knew the foods
that bothered me so I was able to avoid
them. Sometimes that doesn't matter
either, b/c i've gotten indigestion from
water too, lol. About the swelling, you
really shouldn't swell ever. But it's
very common in about the last month. If
you are swelling, drink more water, cut
down on salt, don't wear high heels
(that's the only time my feet were ever
swollen, yes I wore them the whole nine
months, lol) and exercise. Go for a walk
or something light, like yoga. Make sure
you tell your doc if you are swelling.
They will prob give you better advice than
me and also it may be a sign of your blood
pressure rising. Mine was high with both
my baby's and I ended up on bedrest for
the last couple weeks of my preg. Take
care.

Thanks it is mostly in my fingers. I
don't know they look completely normal
now. I do need to cut down on salt
though. I will try what you said and
hopefully it helps.

Haha I sooo upsized my rings a size! I
refused to give them up! Heck we have the
full insurance on em- why not!
Yeah I heard about the hair thing and acid
reflux/heart burn too! And in that case
my little one will look like his daddy!
Haha since that was the only negetive
pregnancy symptom I got was heartburn/acid
reflux.... And like I got perscribed
something for it and it didnt work so my
doc suggested malox or malanta... And
maalox rox! Haha
oh and p.S. I was informed recently
rolaids are a no no and tums are good :)

I used brioschi during both pregnancies
and found it the best product. Mylanta
and maalox caused constipation for me.
Tums and rolaids caused me even more
indigestion. Try brioschi if you can.

I remembered eating 6 smalle meals lots of
water and tums. Try not to eat alot of
spicy foos plus the time of day. Try not
to eat to late in the day too. That
helped for the next day. Plus I could
even sleep much when I stuffed myself. :p
:wink:
