When I found out I was pregnant with my second baby I knew I had a long four to six months ahead of me. With my first pregnancy I was terribly sick. I couldn’t eat much. What I did eat didn’t have much chance to nourish me because it ended up in the toilet. To my dismay and surprise I lost 25 pounds in the first trimester during my first pregnancy.
The first trimester of my second pregnancy was shaping up to be exactly like the first one. Then my in-laws (again) told me that I should try taking Golden Pride Formula #2 76 Plus. They had recommended it to another young woman in their congregation who was also pregnant at the time and it quelled her morning sickness. I was desperate to try anything. Crackers, dry toast, lots of water, ginger tea, ginger candy and kelp were all part of my daily routine, but I was still weak and sick. So when this quick dissolving, pleasant tasting powder came along I figured it couldn’t hurt.
I had to figure out a time of day that adding something new wouldn’t irritate my already sensitive stomach. I had to wait until the evening when the nausea was somewhat at bay. I’d mix one scoopful into 8 oz. of water and sip it. The orange taste was so mild it was almost imperceptible.
