beano?

Does anyone know if Beano is okay to take? My o/b nurse said she was pretty sure it was okay, not exactly the level of confidence I was hoping for. I'd like to try it to see if it helps at all (sort of tired of sounding like a frat-boy!!). Any thoughts?

I'm not really sure. I'm one of those people though that if I don't have to take something, then I'm not going to unless I'm dying or something. I say, gas it up while you can, lol! How often will you actually have the opportunity to compete w/your SO in this field??

haha!! I'm with you on taking things. I've been avoiding taking anything really so far, a little Tylenol for bad headaches is all so far. Through my first tri I was really scared by some of the pains, most of which were probably gas, so I was trying to think of something I could do to prevent them in the first place, and prevent the little freak outs I would have. I guess being farther along now it's less of an issue. And DH is totally impressed btw! haha!!

lol, mine always says to me every morning... "I have a bone to pick with you" lol!! I just tell him to quit hating and keep up Yeah, even with headaches I try to avoid taking Tylenol. My doctor said it was okay but I just feel weird. I guess I'm just a big worry wart as is, I'd rather not make it worse.

Congrats on your lil' one! We're very close in DD. Virgos rock!

haha that's hilarious!! I've really tried avoiding taking Tylenol too, also because it hasn't really helped the few times I've tried. I'm a worrier too and I do feel better not taking too many chances, at least for now. Congrats to you too! My original DD was 9/19/11, so who knows, they may change it on me again. Yay for our future Virgos!

My doc said it was ok to take beano, since its made mostly of digestive enzymes. I have found, however, that a daily dose of Activia yogurt (once or twice a day) has helped inmensly with all my tummy troubles, you might want to try that first?

Good Luck!

that's what my o/b nurse said too, that it was just enzymes so it should be fine. I just wish she sounded a little more sure of herself. I'll give the activia a try, thank you!
