Losing weight while pregnant/pouchitis

hey everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has had trouble with losing weight in the first trimester of pregnancy due to pouchitis? If so, what did you do about it?

I had the stomach flu and now the flu over the last 3 weeks and have been struggling with pouchitis since the beginning of my pregnancy (I’m 15 weeks now).

My dr is wanting to start me on biologics, but I’m not ready for that. I’ve tried flagyl, xifaxan, Imodium, vsl3, and I’ve increased my intake as much as I can stomach.

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome! I’ve lost almost 20 lbs and it’s not weight I can afford to lose!
