Hi Girls
Since 1 week I have problem digesting food.
And I also started to throw up once a day.
Nurse says its bcos of the babies pressing the tummy that it cant function normally. But still it worries me coz I donno if my nutrition is ok now. I do try to compensate a lot with uncooked food like Bread, Cheese, Milk, Yogurt etc which somehow I am able to retain inside. its mainly our Indian cooked food that I have problem with.
Anyone else having trouble eating and digesting.
I already faced a terrible nauseau in first trimester and scared to even recollect it. I heard that Nauseau will return in third trimester for some, I am afraid I fall in that category.
Other than this I am ok, this is the main prob.
Bargavi nikki replied. According to my experience,try to take awalk after every meal.The day when I don't walk after dinner I am unable to sleep.So if u can ,try to take a walk.

Take care,

Suni replied. Hi Bar,

Your twins need the nutrition and I am hoping this might work for you.
You get a medley of frozen cut veggies in the frozen section. Take that, boil it in the microwave so that it is kinda soft, then put butter in a pan and fry it with salt. It tastes yummy, especially with curd rice and you get the nutrition you need from the veggies.
Let me know if this works.

Suni Vidhya replied. hi guys...
dont worry. i havent come acroos something like that as of now. But i think it will be better for you if you avoid spicy and masala foods totally. try to eat as much bland as possible, i know it will be tough for some days , but then u might get accustomed to it....i will let u know if i find something more abt this

Vidhya Uma replied. Hi Bar & Nick,
I really feel sorry for u both,thank God as of now i am not having these prblms.
Dunno much about it but as Anu mentioned stick to that and i wish that everything shud be ok.
Take good care nd Cheer up pls!!
Uma Bar replied. Hi,
I seem to be doing everything possible, as Nick said even plain dal and rice is tough. I somehow can take curd rice so thats my prime lunch and dinner these dys. Nick, I too have that acid thing coming up... but as long as u dont throw up its ok... but I do throw up too
I really dont mind all this, but worried abt the nutrition intake thats all. Anyway I am meeting the doc this sat, will sort out things then.
Take care
Bar anu replied. Hi Bargavi & Nick,

I feel very sorry for you guys. I am not feeling this way but just want to share information what I know.

Heard that we should avoid all Masala and spicy food. Need to drink lot of water. Have food in small quantities. Finish your dinner by 6:30 or 7:00Pm and try to walk slowly for some time after dinner.

Don't worry friends. Just 2 and 1/2 months for u both. So take care.

I hope you will better soon.

Nick replied. I have a somewhat similar problem specially from my 27th week.The nausea of my 1st trimester is back but haven't thrown up yet (Dunno when that will also start,I am keeping my fingers corssed).
I am having somesort of heartburn even with my normally cooked Indian food at home.
The only things I don't have heartburn are fruits and boiled food.
I drink plenty of water but somehow the acidic taste of food keeps coming back.
I read that meals should be taken 3 hrs before bedtime and to avoid tomatoe ,citrus fruits ,spicy food etc .
I try to follow it but guess heartburn is normal in the 3rd trimester.
Sometimes I wonder what to eat as even daal and rice causes heartburn.
