Thanks Stef.
I like you have 3 kids, but was only diagnosed after the birth of my second child. In hindsight I think I had UC after my first child, but as I got pregnant within 5 months again, I went into remission and was fine until I had my second child. I took about 18 months to get into remission after that flare, as I had no idea what was wrong with me and ignored my symptoms for quite some time.
got into remission last year and my husband and I decided to try for another child, which arrive just 6 weeks ago. I was in remission throughout the pregnancy which makes this flare so depressing. Finally have my body someway back to myself and here we go into another flare. God these diseases are so unfair. I should be enjoying my little bundle of joy, but instead I am praying she won't take too long to feed incase I need to run to the bathroom.
Well moan over.
I had any appointment with my GI when she was 4 week old and I was in great form, how things change in less than two weeks. I asked him about going back on the Humira and he was unsure as there is so little research done with this drug
I think like always with these disease the choice will be ours therefore all blame will lie with us
