More Info: Hi,I was diagnosed with UC at age 10 and have had a j-pouch for almost 10 years now. I'm 20 weeks pregnant with my first baby and having absorbtion issues, particularly with fruits, vegetables and whole grains. I am taking prenatal vitamins several times a day. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I am also curious as to what happens to the pouch (does it get squished? Does frequency increase?) as the baby gets larger.
