Nope.  It's normal.  Tell your woman "Welcome to preganacy"!

Yes it can, especially if you have an outbreak at time of delivery. Make certain your doc knows of this issue and discuss all issues that may be known with him. Just don't stress out over it as that isn't healthy either

having a baby was a peice of cake for me, i got lucky i suppose. listening to her cry for six straight hours would get on my nerves, but having diarrhea would probably be worse.

There a few things to keep in mind.\n\nFirst, I doubt that the hydrocephulus or VP shunt would be a problem during the pregnancy.  However there is a chance that the tubing may malfunction ie stop draining during the pregnancy given that everything gets pushed around inside you abdominal cavity.\n\nSecond, the major dilemma with pregnancy, VP shunts, and your underlying condition  is childbirth.  If you are planning a vaginal delivery, the pushing can potentially increase intracranial pressure which potentially cause problems.  In addition, remember that by pushing you are increasing intra abdominal pressure and that can decrease the flow of the VP shunt.  In general, (I would talk to your neurosurgeon and perineonatalogist  or high risk ob doctor about it), I think a C-section would be safer.\n\nwhat type of hydrocephalus do you have?

if you are in your first 6-13 weeks, I suggest not taking anything at all, because this time is when serious adverse effects could cause damage to the baby\nif it is past 13 weeks, it's not that big of a deal, (even though i wouldn't take any meds at the risk of my baby) but you should ask your doctor again, and if he is not helping you, call an obstetrician to find out. Find one in the yellow pages or if you know of one in particular in your town and ask what is best to do, medicine-wise, that will not harm your baby.\nBut if you are not past 13 weeks, you need to just deal with it.

Absolutely. With a normal pregnancy, you can keep doing it right up until your water breaks. Do check with your doctor or midwife first if you've been treated for premature labor or if you're having any problems with your pregnancy, such as a shortened or dilated cervix, leaking amniotic fluid, placenta previa, or bleeding, or if you have a history of miscarriages. There are some instances when you should avoid having sex.\n\nBut as long as your pregnancy is normal, you won't hurt the baby by making love, even with your partner on top. The thick mucus plug that seals the cervix helps guard against infection. The amniotic sac and the strong muscles of the uterus also protect your baby. Though your baby may thrash around a bit after orgasm, it's because of your pounding heart, not because he knows what's happening or feels pain. \n\nWill it feel as good?\nEven better for some women, not as good for others. Increased blood flow to the pelvic area can cause engorgement of the genitals and heighten the sensation. But the same engorgement gives other women an uncomfortable feeling of fullness after intercourse ends. Also, some women may have abdominal cramps during or after intercourse. Your breasts may become enlarged and can be more tender, which can cause discomfort when they're fondled. You may have more vaginal discharge or moistness, which can make sex either more pleasurable or can result in some vaginal irritation. If you notice a sudden change in the amount of vaginal discharge or a foul or unusual odor, check with your practitioner. You could have a vaginal infection or your bag of waters may have broken. When your water breaks, you may feel a slow leak rather than a gush of fluid all at once.

Its dangerous for an infant, because he/she has such small lungs and not a very good immune system. I'm not real sure what to do, but your doctor will be able to tell you. (yeah, its a dumb question to ask a doctor, but my sister did)\n\nGood luck with the rest of your pregnacy, and God bless.

For the love of God.  Even the Queen of England sharts. LOL  I bet she and models get more diarrhea than any one else with all that rich food they consume.

Most women with Crohn's disease are able to deliver healthy, full-term babies; however, many people have questions about the impact Crohn's disease will have on a pregnancy. Women who have Crohn's disease may be concerned about whether or not they have the physical capacity to carry a pregnancy to term, while men with Crohn's disease may worry whether medication has affected the viability of their sperm.\n\n\nWill we be able to conceive a baby?\nWomen with an active case of Crohn's disease may have difficulty conceiving. Men who use sulfasalazine, a commonly used drug to treat Crohn's disease, may become temporarily infertile because the sulfa compound can decrease sperm production. If a man is trying to father a child, he should ask his physician about 5-ASA medications which can treat Crohn's disease without risking fertility. Women with Crohn’s disease who are planning to become pregnant should consult a doctor.\n\nHow can Crohn's disease affect my pregnancy?\nWhile most women with Crohn's disease are able to carry a full-term pregnancy and deliver a healthy baby, it is important for you to know that your disease may affect your pregnancy in the following ways: \n\n\nA cesarean section may be required for some women who have Crohn's disease with complications, including abscesses or fistulas of the rectum or vagina.\n\n\nIf a woman is experiencing an active bout of Crohn's disease during pregnancy she has a 2 to 3 times increased risk of miscarriage, delivering the baby prematurely, or stillbirth.\n\n\nIf a woman has active Crohn's disease at the time of conception, the disease usually runs its course in a similar way to the pattern that was experienced before pregnancy.\n\n\nIf a woman is experiencing active Crohn's disease prior to a pregnancy, she may notice that the symptoms of her disease worsen right after becoming pregnant and during the first 3 months of the pregnancy. The disease may also intensify right after the delivery of her baby. \nIt's important to remember that every pregnancy is different. There is no evidence showing that if you experience severe symptoms during your pregnancy, subsequent pregnancies will also be difficult.\n\n\nShould I change my diet now that I am pregnant?\nIt is important for all pregnant women to eat a healthy and well-balanced diet. As a woman with Crohn's disease, in addition to eating a standard diet recommended during pregnancy, your obstetrician and gastroenterologist may also recommend some special foods, vitamins, and minerals. If your Crohn's disease is being treated with sulfasalazine, it is important that your diet be supplemented with folic acid, since this is an essential nutrient in preventing certain birth defects.\n\n\nAre medications for Crohn's disease safe to take during my pregnancy?\nAll women who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant should avoid taking any unnecessary medications. However, if you are experiencing active Crohn's disease, it may be necessary for you to be treated with medication.\n\n\nIf you’re a pregnant woman and considering drug therapy, you should speak with both your gastroenterologist and your obstetrician, so that each healthcare provider is well informed about current health issues when recommending treatment options.\n\nAre any diagnostic tests safe during pregnancy?\nAll pregnant women should avoid having X-rays, especially during the first 12 weeks, unless it is absolutely necessary. Presently, MRIs are sometimes used, but more information is needed. The following tests may also be used for pregnant women who may have Crohn's disease for the management of their disease:\n\n\nAbdominal ultrasound\n\nSigmoidoscopy\n\nRectal biopsy\n\nUpper endoscopy\n\nColonoscopy\n\nWill previous surgery for Crohn's disease affect my pregnancy?\nThere is no evidence that a bowel resection due to Crohn's disease affects a woman's pregnancy. The opposite actually

Generally Papaya is very good for stomach and treatment of several stomach ailments. As Papaya is a  laxative agent and flush out the stomach it will aggravate diarrhoea instead of controlling. You should take the food that will control diarrhoea and avoid dehydration. Papaya can be taken after a week of curing the present problem. Other foods that can be given are -\n\nFood for Diarrhoea patients - Milk is not good as the lactose contents is the sugar commonly found in cow’s milk based formulas will not control loose motion. For breast feeding babies however it can be continued, since it is their main food. Others can have food as under-\n\nHigh energy foods such as fats, yogurt and cereals are quite well absorbed during diarrhoea. Small, frequent feeds of energy-rich local foods familiar to the child should be given. A little vegetable oil can be added to foods such as millet or rice to increase the energy content.\nFoods high in potassium are important to restore the body's essential stores depleted during diarrhoea. Such foods include lentils, bananas, mangoes, pineapples, pawpaw and citrus fruits.\n\nCertain foods should be avoided during diarrhoea, for example those containing a lot of fibre such as coarse fruits and vegetables, whole grain cereals and spicy foods. \nIt is very important to continue feeding a person with diarrhoea. Give soft, easy-to-digest foods, like khichri, watery dal, idlis, curd, bananas etc.\n\nYou should also give plenty of other fluids, like lemonade], rice kanji, lassi, coconut water, weak tea etc. If the baby is being breast-fed, continue to give her mother's milk.\n\nGive an extra meal a day, after the diarrhoea stops, to help the body get strong again-.

There's alot of things that can cause hemorroids, constipation, cronic diarrhea,foods you eat and sitting for long periods of time. Pregnancy also can be reason especially during labor.  For short term relief try a cream or sitz bath, but surgery is the only way to get rid of them, which should be the last resort, because I've been told the surgery is very painful.

Just be careful not to overdo it and to use chemicals only in well ventilated areas. Unless there are extenuating circumstances (prior difficulties in the pregnancy, for example) you should be fine. If you're not sure, ask your doctor.
