Wow! You worry too much! Granted, it's not unfounded, but wow! You're gonna melt your brain, worrying about that much all at once!

It may not be incredibly helpful to you, but I take comfort in my faith when I'm feeling frustrated, worried or otherwise stressed. It doesn't even matter what faith, at least not to anyone else. Simply knowing that all my pain and suffering is happening for a good reason makes it easier to bear.

Also... You're having a baby! That's wonderful! You are creating a human being! Bringing life into the world! Focus on that!

Mia - Hang in there. I know it's hard, but hang in there. I think the D could be the crohn's, but it could also be because of the hormone surge since you are in early pregnancy. With two of my pregnancies I thought I was "flaring" at the beginning, but I wasn't. It was really just the hormone shift in my body. Believe it or not early pregnancy stuff can mimic a flare. The only way you will know is to ride it out and see if things calm down after you get your remicade. If the D does not go away, don't panic. It could just be the first trimester hormone shift. Mine cleared up around 14-16 weeks.

I hope you get everything sorted out with the Xanax. I'm so sorry this is so stressful for you. Keep your chin up!
