Megan Johnson of The Front Butt YouTuber has presented 5 questions for people with IBD to answer and then tag someone else using #IBDAdvocacyTag. It's a great way to get to know people in the community better and hear different perspectives. My answer to the form of IBD I have is not going to be what you expect and my socially awkward moment is pretty epic: I remember every detail about it, even though it happened almost two decades ago. And who did I tag? Well, I do that in my own way, too. If you decide to participate, use #IBDAdvocacyTag on social media and answer these questions: What form of IBD do you have? Why is IBD advocacy important? Describe a socially awkward moment with IBD. What is a common stigma you run into? What do you want other people to know about IBD?

Pregnancy and birth are different for women with IBD. There are not only challenges that come from the disease itself but the lack of awareness about IBD during pregnancy can lead to less than optimal treatment. Brooke Abbott of The Crazy Creole Mommy Chronicles describes how she coped with ulcerative colitis during her pregnancy and a birth that did not go as she'd hoped or as she'd expected. Learn how everything turned out in the end and find out what Brooke and Amber think pregnant women with IBD should do to prepare for birth and for those first few weeks with a new baby.

Take a journey back to 1999, when cellphones were a rarity, dial-up internet access was still used, and Amber had her first surgery of the 2-step j-pouch process. Amber's husband Mike, a writer and communicator, journaled his thoughts on the day of the surgery. This journal was recently uncovered and Amber reads it to Mike and gets his reactions and further recollections of that challenging day. You can find out more about Amber and Mike in Episode 8, where you'll hear about being told surgery was needed and find out about their fairytale wedding: https://soundcloud.com/amber-j-tresca/michael-tresca Conditions and procedures mentioned in this episode: Before, During, and After J-Pouch Surgery https://www.verywell.com/before-during-and-after-j-pouch-surgery-4137938 Central Lines: Why Is a Central Line Necessary? https://www.verywell.com/central-lines-why-is-a-central-line-necessary-3156818 What Are Precancerous Cells? https://www.verywell.com/what-are-precancerous-cells-2248796 Pseudopolyps in Inflammatory Bowel Disease https://www.verywell.com/pseudopolyps-in-inflammatory-bowel-disease-1942411 Find Michael Tresca at: Twitter: https://twitter.com/worldofwelstar Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/worldofwelstar/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/talien Find Amber J Tresca at: Verywell: https://www.verywell.com/ibd-crohns-colitis-4014703 Blog: http://aboutibd.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ibdcrohns/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/aboutIBD Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/aboutibd/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/about_IBD/ "About IBD with Amber Tresca" © Cooney Studio http://cooneystudio.com/
