Question 2

18 weeks pregnant my hands and area around mouth and nose get cold and numb ish. what could this be? i know i am prone to reynauds with ehlers danlos.

Accepted Answer

Complication: Definitely these symptoms can be a complication of pregnancy in the setting of your autoimmune problems, and your ehlers danlos.  One typically isn't 'prone' to ehlers danlos, one either has it or doesn't, though there are varying 'types' of ehlers danlos.  Given women in pregnancy with ehlers are considered very high risk, you should be seeing a perinatologist, at least for consult.

Question 6

what is the cause of swollen feet in 39 weeks pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

You'll find out in: The next two weeks :-).  The baby and all the rest that you're carrying in the front puts some pressure on the veins  coming from your legs into the pelvis.  This causes a back pressure that results in the water retention found so often in pregnant women.  Elevate your feet as often as possible, and be patient.  Best of luck with the new baby.

Question 8

i'm 22 weeks pregnant, i crave to eat johnson baby powder. so much that my mouth water just thinking about it. will this have any health risk to baby?

Accepted Answer

If you had decided..: .. to eat the baby powder, it still wouldn't hurt your child.. unless you get sick from ingestion, then your sickness may give the baby a ride.  But overall try not to eat the baby powder.  Take your vitamins and eat good food instead.

Question 9

i am 7 weeks pregnant and i constantly have this sweet taste in my mouth and i nolonger eat sweet thing , but the taste is always there how can i trea?

Accepted Answer

Taste &amp; smell...: ...sensitivity &amp; other changes are VERY common early in pregnancy but usually get better by the 2nd trimester.   You might also have reflux, another common pregnancy problem.  OTC antacids like Tums (calcium carbonate) &amp; Rolaids are safe during pregnancy.  Pay special attention to your oral health, take your prenatal vitamins and stick to mild, easily digested food for now.  Best wishes for a healthy baby!

Question 10

after i eat i have a funny taste in my mouth. tonite i ate fish and every time i burp i can still taste the fish. could i be pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Only if you had sex: During your fertile time with a fertile man and used inadequate or no protection. It would have nothing to do with the fish and burping (with or without a fishy taste) is not a primary sign of pregnancy. If you've missed a period, have a pregnancy test. Use protection for any sexual activity if you do not want to get pregnant. Best!
