First of all, CONGRATS!!! That is wonderful!
Second, DON'T WORRY about nutrition during that first trimester. All you really need right now is fluids and plenty of folic acid. Are you taking a supplement or a multivitamin that has enough? Those are the two most important things during the first trimester.
Third, by the end of your pregnancy, you'll be so backed up, you'll be wishing for D again! Seriously, my IBS was at its worst right at the beginning, too, and then I had no problems with it at all the rest of my pregnancy. The only other times I noticed it a little was when I transitioned between trimesters. Maybe try taking some extra calcium right now? That usually helps with D, and the calcium would be good for you and baby!
Good luck!
