Just an FYI...Remember those pains I raced to the doctor for? I think I found the culprit!
NUTS!
I ate a handful about an hour ago and am just doubled over! At least I know it was digestive!!! I used to LOVE nuts and eat them all the time! Guess I'd better take that off my list until February!

Re: OUCH!
Nuts can cause an intestinal problem BIG TIME. You need to cut them down as well as seeds like seseme seeds/poppy seeds etc...

Re: OUCH!
Make sure you tell the doctor. The condition is called (but spelled ALL wrong) Divertickulitis (just sound it out). I know a few people who have had it and it is no joke.

Re: OUCH!
You can get really sick from this Jen so make sure to tell your doctor. And stop ALL nuts and seeds for now. I know 3 people who were hospitalized for this. Something about the nuts/seeds screwing up your intestines. Again, it is not spelled right.

Re: OUCH!
I have never heard that it happens more during pregnancy. I know you said that when you went low-carb you increased the nuts/seed products. That is what does it, not the pregnancy. Just call the doctor and tell him what happened. I have no clue if this is what is happening but better to look into it Some info Diet for this stuff
