Its lovely you dont have GD and your blood pressure is normal...this is great especially as it means you can indulge every now and again...HOWEVER...I disagree that pregnancy is a time to "be pigs" for nine months. Anyone who is pregnant should be extremely aware of what they are eating, drinking and any "other" things they put in their body, such as medication. Ice cream is perfectly fine, in moderation. Most things are fine, in moderation.
Eating "like a pig" isnt a great idea when you have serious health concerns on top of pregnancy. Im actually suprised noone has spoken to you about diet considering you have hyperemesis, preeclampsia a blood clotting problem and several other health issues which arent easy to deal with when pregnant.
Im afraid I cant sit here and go "yeah its fine, eat like a pig...why not!" when it seems detrimental to your life and the babys health. Its important for you to be as healthy as possible for the sake of your child and for the sake of YOU because the health problems you have can be SERIOUS, preeclampsia especially can be very dangerous and diet (sensible eating) plays a very large part of keeping your blood pressure under control.
Really is there any need to be so rude to the OP?
She did not make this thread to have a lecture on how much ice cream she should or should not eat,also bring up things from other thread "eating like a pig" (which is generally a turn of phrase) in not great forum etiquette TBH
If she had got GD them i could understand it more, but she hasn't and even if she had you have in no way being caring in your posts, just very abrupt IMO.
You don't/didn't seem to be offering any advice as such to the OP just slating her which is really not on.
Do you have any idea what OP's diet is? have you asked her? she could be very healthy for all you know but just having a binge on icecream now and again and TBH if she was eating it 24/7 it would be nobodies business except hers.
Everyone is different in pregnancy and that is a vital thing to be remembered especially where diet is concerned
Thankyou for posting this. I was just about to write and say how disgusting I think it is that YET AGAIN I come on here and Anothersquish and FemmeEnciente have been rude and insensitive. I'm starting to believe that the pair of you actually enjoy attacking other people on here. I won't stand for it. MrsQ, myself and at least 3 others have been hurt, insulted or upset by your comments. MrsQ has been reduced to tears because of the way you've spoken to her Anothersquish, and now wants to leave bnb because of it.
Why can't you be a bit more kind with the way you word things? MrsQ is on blood clotting injections because of a brain tumour and you've insinuated that she's putting medication in her body that she doesn't need which could harm her baby!!! She can't help having hyperemesis and she's resting because of the pre eclampsia. If she wants to pig out on ice cream for a few days then she bloody well can! She doesn't need you sticking your oar in and telling her what a bad job she's doing at looking after herself and her baby!
ARGH I've had enough of it, I'm starting to get put off using this forum as well now. But why should a load of us piss off and not come back just because some people can't exercise a bit of sensitivity?
Actually Katieee you seem to have gotten the wrong end of the stick. 1) what does this have to do with FemmeEnciente? She hasnt posted here, shes not my friend nor anything else, shes another forum member, why drag her into it?
Secondly, I was meaning nothing of the sort whatsoever about any medication MrsQ is on and it being bad, I am taking medication during pregnancy and as such am potentially more aware of how careful I need to be in other aspects to try and make my taking of essential medication safe. No need to make assumptions on my behalf.
I have hyperemesis too, I know how difficult it can be to find foods you can eat. I have lost over 5 stone in weight and am still sick half a dozen times a day...hence I can sympathise but also understand the importance of attempting to balance a diet badly affected by this debilitating gestational problem.
My comments, whilst possibly not hug friendly were not meant in a nasty way if MrsQ feels strongly she should contact me directly and say she feels upset. I would apologise to her for upsetting her as its never my intention to make a person upset. I word things strongly a lot of the time, this is a problem for some people and if thats the case does it make it right for them to attack me as you are doing?
