How are you, Eva? How many weeks are you now?
8:07 am
EvaNadine

16 weeks today!
8:07 am
EvaNadine

doing quiet well, i must say. no real side-effects to speak of, at the moment...
8:08 am
Scrabbler

You had no morning sickness? You were lucky.
8:10 am
EvaNadine

none at all, though for a few weeks my appetite was...off.
my biggest symptom was fatigue, but that lifted significantly after the first trimester.

now its just the normal (i presume) feeling of putting on weight. heh
8:11 am
EvaNadine

i do have a question for you, though!

i picked up some Vitamin D supplements over the weekend, but there were options + i wasnt quite sure if i got the right dosage.

1st - its D3, yes? (it's the only D they had, but they had a lot of choices in D3)

also, without having myself tested, what dosage would you recommend? they had everything from 400 up to 2000 (maybe higher) and i couldnt remember what id read. the most common dosage available was 1000, so i grabbed that -- would that be right?
8:13 am
Scrabbler

Do what the vitamin D experts recommend on that website. 6000 IU/day. You want to protect the developing fetal brain.
8:14 am
EvaNadine

gotcha (i didnt have internet access in the store, so i couldnt pull up the website)
8:14 am
Scrabbler

Vitamin D deficiency in pregnant mother's is ONE known cause of autism.
8:16 am
Scrabbler

That website is written by vitamin D scientists and supported by science. It is not quackery.
8:17 am
EvaNadine

thanks -- i will up my dosage + pick up some more!
8:18 am
Scrabbler

Giving extra vitamin D to infants and toddlers that show autistic signs has been shown to reverse the autism, and I have one such boy that had full blown autism as a toddler and is a typical 5 yr old now.
8:19 am
Scrabbler

Vitamin D is not really a vitamin.It is really a hormone that our body produces but we require sun exposure to do so.
8:19 am
EvaNadine

wow -- im intrigued to know whether my friend (whose son has autism) has come across that information. she has done a lot of studying + research on the topic.
8:20 am
Scrabbler

It is on that website. Dr Cannell has done and continues to do research on this.
8:21 am
Scrabbler

It is ONE cause as their are many causes including genetics.
8:23 am
EvaNadine

im sold. now im just gonna make sure im getting the right dosage. :)
8:25 am
Scrabbler

Read the info on autism on the website. Read about the "Swedish disease" (autism) in Somali immigrants in Sweden.
8:25 am
Scrabbler

Especially because you have a male fetus and autism os more common is boys.
8:26 am
Scrabbler

I made sure my great-nephews had 1000 IU/day during infancy too and stay on it.
8:32 am
hurshy

if it's not a vitamin why is it called a vitamin?
8:32 am
Scrabbler

It was wrongly named.
8:32 am
Sam

Hello all. Chiming in on the vitamin D connversaton... Remember that D3 is fat soluble, so either use the soft gels that contain olive oil, or make sure you eat something with fat when you take dry D3. I get 5000iu soft gels from Swansonvitamins.com and take at least one a day, on average. Cool thing is it's got a half life, so if you miss a day or three, just load up again. And on the rare occasion i feel any illness knocking at my door, I take 50,000iu a day for three days and it's gone. My two cents.
8:33 am
hurshy

what period of history was it wrongly named?
8:34 am
Scrabbler

I buy my vitamins and supplements from Swanson too, Sam.
8:34 am
hurshy

i saw the thing about having a blood level over 40 could lower cancer risk, wondering if i should double my dose
8:34 am
Scrabbler

I don't know, Hurshy, but it is a hormone that we produce from sun exposure.
8:35 am
Scrabbler

Read: www.vitamindcouncil.org for expert advice and fascinating info about the role of vit D deficiency in so many diseases.
8:35 am
Scrabbler

Over 70 is even better.
8:36 am
hurshy

i'll have to see if i still have the results of my last blood test so that i can see what my level was
8:36 am
72 Temple Owl

is d level routinely tested in cbc?
8:37 am
Sam

I read "The Vitamin D Book" (don't recall the author), and it turns out D toxicity is very hard to achieve. You could take 150,000iu a day for 30 days and still not get there. So if you have any doubts, and don't want to pay for the test, just chug a few hundred thousand units and then go the 5,000iu a day. It's almost guaranteed you'll have enough. BTW, 5,000 a day is right for most adults.
8:38 am
Scrabbler

No, Owl, it is a separate blood test.
8:38 am
hurshy

i know i've had mine tested tho that included vit D
8:38 am
Sam

The vit D toxicity they yell about is really vit A toxicity, because D was so often sourced from cod liver oil, which is loaded with A. Pure D3 is utterly safe.
8:38 am
hurshy

i don't know what you call the test but
8:38 am
72 Temple Owl

effects of deficiency on adults?
8:39 am
hurshy

without vit D you can't absorb calcium, so it puts you at risk for osteoperosis
8:39 am
hurshy

plus your immune system is not as good
8:39 am
Scrabbler

I take 5000 IU/day Oct-April and 2000 IU/day the remainder of the year. I allow myself 30 min of sun exposure before putting on zinc/titanium sunscreen.
8:39 am
Sam

You can test yourself. Just tap your shin. If it hurts, you are deficient.
8:40 am
Scrabbler

Owl,vit D deficiency causes MS, cancer, depression, fatigue, worsens asthma, etc
8:41 am
Scrabbler

Yes, people low in D get sick more often during the winter too.

funny story:

my parents are both from england, but my brother + i were born + raised here.

in 2000, when my brother got married, their wedding invitations were intended to read "we request the honor of your presence..."

however, no one who proofread the invitations noticed that they actually read "we request the honour of your presence..."

of course my parents wouldnt notice!
(and my brother is severely dyslexic, so he wasnt going to catch it either)

i was away at college at the time, so they went ahead and ordered + sent them.
as soon as i set eyes on it, i said "did you mean to spell it the british way?"

they just decided to tell folks it was intentional. yknow, to pay homage to my parents.
;)
12:28 pm
Deeha

I am sure everybody went aaaah how nice!

A compound word is the result of two words being joined. Ergo the combination of the two words to make ho9 is a compound word.
6:15 pm
lynxxx

I am no English expert, but I don't believe ho9 should be called a compound word which is why I said 'not really but....'. I wouldn't call ca7 a compound however oa7 is
6:30 pm
Argon

Definitely not a compound word, but it is a plural.
6:34 pm
Argon

The fact that it includes two words is not sufficient for it to be a compound word. No more than something like nutritiousness is a compound word even if you can find two legitimate words in there.
6:43 pm

And as for your "definers" it's not two words being joined, like boneyard, it's a word that happens to contain two words. Sorry but there's a difference. /pedantry

As a babbler said earlier, it is a tempest in a teacup. Some purist claim that words are compound only when hyphenated, while others are fine with any word that contains more that one word--regardless of whether the joining was intentional or circumstantial..

I live in a writers world where every last word must be in american English prior to submission or it gets rejected, so I am used to the flexibility needed when dealing with arguable finer details of our wonderful language.
