I know not exactly on topic for the board, but I trust most pedes on here more than any doctors or medical people right now. So with that being said, my wife and I are about to being another pure blood into the world and i was wonder if any of the health experts on here can tell me if prenatals are a good idea and if so a good brand to look for. I literally have nearly zero trust for most companies pushing anyhting now days, because they all seemed to be owned by terrible companies.
Sorry again for off topic but happy to share the great news with you frens, and any help is greatly appreciated!!!
Yay! I just had my son 9 months ago! Try to focus on eating healthy, of course she’s going to have cravings but try to have well balanced meals! If she’s open to it, see if you can get a midwife rather than a physician. They’re still in a hospital, doctors are still there but you have someone with a more natural approach! Overall just try to keep a happy positive environment, being pregnant can be uncomfortable so give her grace. CONGRATULATIONS!!
Great info! And yes we are going to try and focus on balance meals and introduce more sea food as we do not eat enough. And with everything going on, it will be tough but we will manage. Thank you very much for your reply and congrats on your recent baby as well!!!!
Congratulations!
Make sure to check where the seafood is fished. Our doc in NOLA was treating people from Mississippi for heavy metals poisoning. The water from the MIss. River (the current took it east) was polluting the Gulf so seafood was exposed.
Louisiana is basically the sewer system for a large part of the country because all the crap, literally and figuratively dumped into the River finds its way down to us.
Good to know, thank you I will be sure to double check everything she eats!
You’re welcome!
