Just wondering, why did the doctor tell you to go off probiotics? If you have a yeast problem, this would be the thing I'd use to feel better. What were the other natural supplements you were on before you were pregnant?
As for food choices, it boggles my mind how fresh, natural, whole foods loaded with minerals, vitamins, enzymes are the "bad" foods for those with IBS (causing us the most grief) and over-processed, white starchy foods are "good" for us (safe foods). I don't understand reasons why, but I think something happens over a period of time where our body can't tolerate the whole, natural foods anymore. We were created to eat those kinds of foods, after all. I learned by trial and error that for me, too much grains, processed sugar and especially yeast gave me much of my IBS symptoms. Once I stopped eating those foods, and started gradually introducing veggies in their place, along with protein, I felt much better. No one can tell you how your body will react. It is individual, but if you are not having success with what you are eating, change. If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get the same results. Maybe stop with the yeast foods for a bit and see if that helps. Also, too much sugar (natural and especially artificial) has been known to cause grief in some people. I try not to put anything artificial in my body these days. Look at all the added ingredients on all the food labels you eat. If you can't pronounce it, don't eat it
