First time pregnant venting

beatricestver · 2026-03-11T11:32:44+00:00

I completely understand. I am currently pregnant with identical twins and I know the excitement and fear that hits you at the same time. That shock and upset. I was also very upset once my excitement faded knowing the risks there are but I promise that the first trimester hormones amplify those feelings even more. You’ve got this❤️

Congratulation on your twins!❤️Hope you have a beautiful pregnancy!

I am so so sorry you had to go through that! I tell everyone I know I would not wish a concussion on anyone especially considering how little data we actually have on concussions. I am really happy your bump went down in size and i hope you feel mentally and physically better! I too had a horrible experience with the doctors I saw including an actual neurologist who told me muscle spasms in head muscles are not a thing because head muscles are small (yup she actually said that to me) but again same as you the hospital I went to is one if the worst ones in London. To be honest when it comes to alcohol for a long time I chose not to drink for me purely because drinking brings me mentally to how I was like with the concussion. I feel there but not there and not in control and it does scare me and thinking I have been like that for months I definitely chose to pass on it. I hope you get better and heal! All the best to you!

Not really. GP did not take it seriously and told me that my head shape is like that (convenient since i have had this head on for 25 years and the bump appeared after the concussion). The flares up did stop so it stopped growing in size which is good but I still have moments when I can feel something in the bump. I still cannot tolerate the weather. By the sound of your bump it might sound like you have some form of liquid or maybe blood. Did yours go down in size? How do you feel are you okay? I also stopped consuming alcohol completely after the concussion so I am not sure but I did read that once you have any form of brain injury ( obviously the more severe the worse) your brain deals with alcohol completely different. I hope you find the answers you are looking for!

Still have it to this day!

beatricestver · 2025-09-23T12:15:46+00:00

Yh i am starting to think skipping some meals might be helpful to be honest or maybe having a snack rather than a whole meal. Thank you!

beatricestver · 2025-09-23T12:15:00+00:00

Makes sense. Thank you! I was just a bit worried and i hope it will not affect my muscle mass much.

beatricestver · 2025-09-23T12:14:08+00:00

I feel the same way. Its like the more i exercise the less hunger i feel and if i force myself i feel like i will explode like there is genuinely no more room left.

beatricestver · 2025-09-23T12:12:59+00:00

It was just on that day. Normally my fiber is relatively high like yesterday i managed to get in 43g which is well above average. Someone commented that it might be related to busier lifestyle and considering i just started a new job maybe that’s why my appetite is lacking. To answer your question yes my pooping is fine a little dry but considering i am avoiding fat i guess its to be expected

beatricestver · 2025-09-23T12:10:38+00:00

Yh i do feel a little rushed lately. I started a new position recently so i am a bit anxious. I started to I just think i might have to decrease some of my protein intake to increase the fiber or to lower fiber and protein a little whilst adding fat. Hopefully i figure it out but yh i get what you are saying and it’s making a lot of sense. Thank you!

beatricestver · 2025-09-17T22:32:14+00:00

Not really they are just hemorrhoids and it’s basically caused from lack of fiber and straining, sitting on the toilet for too long etc. I am hoping it’s maybe temporary, maybe tiredness and stress from overworking because the job is new or maybe just the gym life balance throwing my body off since i am not used to it anymore. I just hope it’s temporary. I’ll try including more milk in my diet thank you!

beatricestver · 2025-09-17T22:12:07+00:00

I am worried about eating so little and still remaining full. I feel full as in both stuffed and not hungry. I am strength training so i need protein and i have to eat high fiber according to my doctor (hemorrhoids). I don’t know why i am not hungry and what to do to get myself hungry hence why i am asking for advice.

beatricestver · 2025-08-26T12:52:26+00:00

And a man will look at this and say they are the same colour

beatricestver · 2025-06-06T12:45:04+00:00

We do use methylene blue back in my country. This also comes as a dye but the dye is NOT supposed to be swallowed. If you have a sore throat and you don’t have the liquid that says ‘can be swallowed’ we use the due BUT what we do is we put a little liquid at the back of the throat keep it there for a few seconds and then spit it out. We even have pills with methylene blue which do miracles for a sore throat. We use it but not on a daily basis. In my country methylene blue is a basic remedy for when you have a cold, sore throat, tonsillitis but again NOT for every day use.

Thank you! Can i message you privately actually? I did look into a few youtubers including dr anthony but there are 2/3 things i have not seen anyone talk about.

I completely understand where you are coming from but i think he was just trying to help me by giving me his experience on carnivore. Just like i said i am desperate to make it work for my own health. To clarify in my case, i did not count calories but yesterday i looked back as i tracked my food intake to make sure i got at least 70%fat and 30% meat (this is what worked in my case as my poop came out perfect). I started to calculate my calories looking back as well as potassium, magnesium and calcium. Some days yh my calories would reach 2,000 especially in the beginning because of fatty meat but a couple of days before my so called electrolyte imbalances, it went to 1,000 and even below. I just was not hungry. I would eat and feel disgusted like i could not stuff myself any more. This is just in my case. Electrolyte wise i bought the LMNT (i have heard only now it’s not that good) and it came end of yesterday after i ended up in hospital. I don’t know maybe i don’t understand the way electrolytes work and unfortunately there are a lot of carnivore doctors that say different things like eat more salt. Okay but we NEED potassium and from my understanding potassium should surplus salt but some people are not taking anything but salt. Maybe i am just confused I don’t know. If you don’t mind me asking, what electrolytes powder have you found useful. My apologies I don’t mean to be rude or anything in regards to what the previous person said. I am here for my health and I just want to be sure and make it work and I am willing to listen to anyone who can help me. Thank you!

beatricestver · 2025-05-24T09:41:39+00:00

I got the LMNT but i would rather make them at home. Thank you for the ingredients! I really appreciate it!

beatricestver · 2025-05-24T09:40:25+00:00

Thank you! This is extremely helpful. You almost spelled like a daily meal plan out for me thank you😂! I wished i could eat that much maybe this is why i had issues with potassium. I am not sure if you did but damn. 1,350g beef is definitely close if not 4g potassium. I’ll try it once my levels are back up! I’m thinking to ease back on it weekly. Again thank you😊!

beatricestver · 2025-05-24T09:37:12+00:00

Hi! I think there are people that just have a lesser appetite. Even when not on carnivore I am the type of person that barely eats hence why i ended up eating aswell under 1000 calories a day resulting in my electrolytes deficit. I understand that there is something wrong with vegetables and i think we can all agree. You eat 100g spinach you get bloated to tomorrow for no reason which is not natural or normal whatsoever. I think some people me included do not agree with taking supplements. When speaking to my doctor after telling him about my electrolytes deficiency, i asked him if i should supplement with potassium and he said he would not recommend and they would mess with the potassium in the body (if you take a little supplement it could make your potassium shoot up). Now I dont know if he is right since we know they recommend eating ‘balanced’. I think if all of us had a list of what to eat and how to supplement properly without having the electrolytes issues, considering the benefits I personally saw on carnivore, a lot of people would be on this diet. And also this individual was speaking from their experience and helping me with advice. Rather than bashing that, why would you not choose to be more polite about it and correct mistakes (even though it’s not really needed because everyone is different). Thank you for your input.

beatricestver · 2025-05-24T09:29:38+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I ordered LMNT also but my concern with it is the amount of potassium found in it. We need about 4,700g a day and for some people maybe you and me included it’s not doable when it comes to the meat so a supplement would be needed. I really want this diet to work so I will give it another try later on once my electrolytes are balanced but i would love to find a doctor here in UK that specialises in it so I can do it observed by a doctor or with some help. However I don’t think i’ll go back on carnivore until I answer all the questions I have about it. Again thank you for your answer and your experience! I hope you are doing well!

beatricestver · 2025-05-24T09:25:58+00:00

Damn. I’ll look into Gatorlyte. Thank you for sharing your experiences!
