re: What Kind of Side Effect From Dex?

WEIGHT GAIN!  I gained 65 lbs, even though I quite when we found out the baby was a boy.  (I would hate to think how much I would have gained if I had taken it throughout the pregnancy.  Yickes!)  LOTS OF ENERGY!  My husband would have to remind me to slow down and rest.  I felt so good, but I could always tell the next day when I had overdone it.  NO MORNING SICKNESS!  I wasn’t sick at all once I started the dex.  I was very sick with my 2 other pregnancies. 

Once we found out we were having a boy, I was very anxious to get off the dex.  The doctor told me how to wean off, but I was too stubborn and wanted off sooner.  WRONG!!!!!  I tried to quit cold turkey and got the most horrible headaches.  As soon and I took a pill, I was fine.  I didn’t try that one again!  I decided to follow the Dr. instructions. 

STRETCH MARKS!  Due to the weight gain, I guess.  Luckily I can hide them with shorts.  lol.

GOOD LUCK!!!
