Q – 3 months ago I went off the pill and changed to the IUD. My periods have been regular, but this month I’m 1 ½ weeks late. I took a pregnancy test after I missed my period but it came back negative. Should I take another one? Could there be another reason I am late?
Q – What’s the deal with folic acid? I know I’m supposed to start taking it but don’t fully understand why? Should I take it before I get pregnant or just during my pregnancy? Do I need to keep taking it if I’m breastfeeding?
Q – My baby is 7 weeks old and I am exclusively breastfeeding and very happy doing it. I am, though, really missing a glass of wine or two…not like I need to drink a lot but I feel very conflicted about it while I’m nursing. How much is ok to drink, how long do I have to wait before feeding my baby, and how long does it take for the alcohol to actually leave my body?
It’s so great to find super comfortable and stretchy pants and tops that you can wear during your pregnancy that not only look great but feel great on. The best part is you can transition with these pieces after the baby arrives!
This pasta salad is a nutritious and delicious recipe that the whole family will enjoy.
