My body fell apart after pregnancy!

I had my 1st child at 30. Within 5 months developed RA (Rheumatiod Arthritis), 2 years into that my hair started falling out...then at some point (I lost track of when!) I developed Psoriasis, Rosacea and toe nail fungus! I was perfectly healthy before giving birth the 1st time (I now have a total of 3 kids.) I did not gain weight, get stretch marks or saggy breasts from any of the pregnancies - but got all the stuff mentioned above instead. I have 2 questions for all the women out there: 1) Did your body fall apart after pregnancy, and if so how? And, 2) Would you rather have all the supperficial physical things go wrong with pregnancy or still look "good" but be a wreck inside your body, like me?

Hello, I responded to one of your other posts today. I also have 3 children, I am almost 29 and my youngest is 2. Aside from the sagging stomach, big rear/thighs, etc nothing serious has happened to me since my pregnancies. I also know of some natural health products that would make you feel a lot better. Get in touch with me and we'll chat.

Hi! Thanks for responding. I would be interested in natural products, assuming they don't cost too much. That's what kills me, anything natural costs way more than something that has to be "made." I stick with my toxic medications mostly bcz I can get them cheaper with a co-pay than buy natural items that are less harmful on my body. I dont't understand why it costs so much to take a natural product and distribute it! Anyways, thats a pet-peeve of mine currently...I would love to hear more!
