Thank you so much for all of your kind words! We are so excited, but I can't help but wonder what is in store. I was hoping that others had felt good during pregnancy, because that's what the literature says will happen. You never know if you can trust that though, right?! I haven't been on meds in almost two years, but I am having to take lomotil for diarrhea they say is in no relation to my crohn's. That's been going on for almost two years-which is why I quit the meds. I'm hoping for the pregnancy constipation to kick in so I don't have to take the lomotil. LOL! We had out first ultrasound yesterday at 8 weeks and they said everything looks really good. I just want to do all i can for this little one growing inside me.
I actually was pregnant with Crohn's and didn't even know that was what I had until several months after I had the baby and was diagnosed with Crohns. I had severe constipation and bad cramping during pregnancy but besides that everything went just fine. My baby was born beautiful and healthy and I was on tons of different meds at the time cause my ob-gyn was trying to figure out what was wrong with me and none of them harmed the baby. I'm sure everything will go just fine for you and the baby.
I felt my best when I was pregnant. Could eat anything - it was great. Only had trouble my in my 3rd month. That's when we found out I was pregnant. You'll be fine - enjoy that little bundle growing inside of you. It's the coolest thing God did in my life
I was diagnosed after my first child was 1 year old. I went on to have two more healthy 8lb babies. I felt the best as far as my crohn's was concerned when i was pregnant. Probably the result of all the extra hormones. I wish you all the luck and healthy a pregnancy.

But you will be fine, I wish I had some advice for you, as far as the chrons I dont know, but anything else you want to know I would love to help! even just to listen, Im so happy for you!!
