I knew it would happen. I knew it would happen and I let it happen. I was dumb and posted a request for advice on Facebook. And advice I got. Granted, I did get some great information and some helpful natural remedies for my acid reflux (ginger worked wonders, btw!), but I also got a lot of dumb comments about "limiting alcohol consumption" and even recommendations for where in NYC I could find certain products. Have some people completely missed the last 2 years of my life?
It also prompted unsolicited emails about asking my doctor before proceeding with any treatment. I know this comes from a place of love but honestly, I'm not dumb. I'm going to the midwife tomorrow and intend on asking before attempting anything more involved than ginger.
That being said, I think this will end up being my outlet for the remainder of the pregnancy and will help prevent unwanted criticism or advice. We'll see how well that works out...
