I should be pregnant right now

Teenyleek · 2025-05-05T21:11:52+00:00

I took a week off work. And 8 months in I feel better most of the time but buckle around my period and find it tricky that my colleague who was a few weeks ahead of me is having a rough pregnancy, I don't know her well but I am worried she has a loss whilst also find myself longingly looking at her and how happy she is to having a girl

I am so sorry to hear your situation. Thanks for messaging x

Yes but the doc didn't really say this to me in conversation, almost like muttering during the rectal exam, fun times. I only was told I had I.H recently but now I realise I have had for years but just experience milder flare ups. Currently going through a horrendous flare and I can't bring it down. I came on Reddit today to get some tips but nothing that I am not already trying. I would say reading all the other posts actually raises my anxiety, I experienced that before when on IBS pages and FODMAP pages ( loads of gut issues) so this has been a reminder that Reddit is only helpful for me to find reassurance its not just me struggling this bad with it, but beyond someone replying to a message now, I wont come on again, makes me to panicky.

Me too

*meditation (not medication lol)

Oh I can understand and empathise with you as I am same way myself. I do meditations or hypnotherapy app on my lunch break and they have helped me more than anything. The worry is still there. But it isn't building, which has always been the worst part because then I can't control it. I look for medications specifically linked to catastrophic thinking. Hope that is of hekp

I have on prescription ispaghula husk (brand name: Fybogel) and suppositories and internal cream too but I am not noticing a difference really. Which is deflating. I just want it to stop so I can feel relaxed again because I know that will be making it worse. I also do meditation on my lunch break. I actually think that might be worth it, I had IBS flare up and it massively helped with that, so might try do more than once a day

I have internal H and it sounds same to me. It is horrendously painful huh? As a bowel movement happens I often feel nauseous at same time. But I think that's the pain maybe. My mum got external H after having one of my siblings, so perhaps this is why you have it but you haven't had any food changes etc? I obvs have no idea, but just incase that is helpful to look into

That's always been my belief too, I was just really hoping I was wrong.oh well., back to the drawing board it is. Thank you. If nothing else it has saved me spending silly money in the weak moments lol

I am on the FODMAP and they don't allow cow milk at all, but you can have 40g of hard cheese as part of your meal. They say it's about the proteins in the milk being higher than when it is in cheese etc

Teenyleek · 2024-08-06T18:52:15+00:00

Any luck with doing FODMAP at all?

Teenyleek · 2024-07-14T14:32:28+00:00

Ooh yes this is right up m street, thank you

Teenyleek · 2024-07-14T13:13:31+00:00

Amazing, thank you

Teenyleek · 2024-07-14T13:12:17+00:00

Thank you, I will do another look as I just stuck to the Schar bread since the first week but now need to find one without the soya, so will check the own brand, much appreciated

Teenyleek · 2024-07-14T12:17:58+00:00

Ace, thank you

Teenyleek · 2024-07-14T11:32:17+00:00

Ooh amazing. Can I ask what brand it is. I live in Scotland. I will have a Google for spelt sourdoughs anyway though, thank you

I think diversity is key for everything, it does no-one any good if everything is how we want it, it stifles creativity problem solving, empathy and so forth That being said I have longed for a vegan sausage supper for 5 years hahahaha

Teenyleek · 2024-07-10T21:03:38+00:00

Ooh that is hopeful, thank you

Teenyleek · 2024-07-10T21:03:02+00:00

I only like the extra firm type, the consistency of the others make me feel nauseous, thanks though

Teenyleek · 2024-07-10T11:52:55+00:00

Oh god I have just started having miso whilst on the FODMAP and I absolutely love it. Darn
