Anyone with Crohn's???

Question

I'm in remission and know all the basic facts (take my medicine, healthy foods, etc) but I'm just wondering how your bloating is going?  Before pregnancy is bloat from morning to night and now it's hard to distinguish what is a bump and what's bloating from my crohns. I'm not worried or anything.  I don't really have any other symptoms from my crohns; I'm very fortunate and have it all under control.  Just very interested to see if there are any other November mommies with Crohns/Colitis and if you've been notching anything.

Answer

I've had a lot of bloating but not painful.  I'm at 9w4d but they did say they will monitor it bc women with active Crohn's are labeled high risk.  Not sure if I will be since I'm in remission.  Just not sure if it's bloating or bump... Always wanting it to be bump❤️

Answer

I have crohns and my bloating is awful! I am in remission and not having any issue with my crohns, I've just noticed that I am so bloated by the end of the day. I can only assume that crohns is making my pregnancy bloating worse. I like way more pregnant than I am by the end of the day, but it's all bloat.

Answer

I have UC but haven't noticed any bloating. I'm not in remission though and about 10.5 weeks along. My OB doctors didn't really talk about my UC - did those with Chron's/UC make additional appointments with your GI doc?  Didn't really feel like I got good information but I can't tell if that's because there's not a lot to worry about or because the doctors just don't have the expertise.

Answer

I have ulcerative colitis. My bloating has been pretty bad, but surprisingly not as painful as usual, and I've already had issues with diarrhea.
