Pregnancy Info HOME

Nothing except for to perhaps give you gas or heartburn!

That is what I'm concerned about, I eat hot pepper (spicy foods) almost everyday. People around me tells me it is not healthy for my baby-but I only have gas-no nausea or even hearburn. So I need to know as well

I too eat a lot of spicy foods, this pregnancy makes me want them recently. Anyway, for about 2 wks I was eating spicy foods for lunch and dinner everyday. Then, I got a bladder infection. They said to lay off the spicey foods, so I did a little.. but went back to it about a wk after I finished the antiobiotic. The day after I finished I ate 2 spicey meals and ended up going to the dr's that evening from cramping, I thought my bladder infection came back. The Urinalysis came back fine, but the doctor told me to lay off the spicy foods. That's what happen to me, no one that I knew of had ever heard of that. I still eat spicy foods but just a few times a wk and not more than one meal a day.
