I got pregnant about one year after my sleeve. With TWINS! I gained 50 pounds. After delivery checkup was at 30 lbs down. Freaking out a little because my sleeve feels different and I have just a little restriction. We'll see how loing it takes to get off the rest,
I am excited to a point it has been a very hard and painful pregnancy I have only gained 5 pounds and am having a hard time keeping those 5 pounds on
I am at the point now where I just want to hold him in my arms so I can physically feel better for the last week or so I have spent so much time laying on my side on the couch because that is the only time I don't feel like I am going to pass out he is pressing on my aorta causing me to pass out repeatedly if I am standing or laying on my back
At the same time I don't feel like I am ready for him to come out yet his room still has boxes in it from my move his furniture isn't being delivered until july 12 just lots of little things
Thank you :) I am much older and unfortunately a Diabetic Type 2. Did they put you on any meds for your Insulin Resistance? How was your A1C during the process? With ICSI I don't think I will need to have that step as hubbies swimmers are A-Okay & don't suffer severe sperm dysfunction, it's me that has the fertility issues. I am trying to get down to 180 (about 10-11lbs to lose before August) Was there any part of the process that you found difficult/painful and just needed to rest I guess leading upto ET?

Hi Smittyjen! awwww congrats on your two beautiful babies through IVF! I do have a couple of questions and I hope they are not to intrusive? May I ask what your age was when you under went IVF? Did you produce a lot of eggs due to Ovulation Stimulation meds (I Heard PCOS patients have a higher amount of eggs) What weight were you when you had IVF? Do you have Glucose issues either before or during pregnancy?
Thank you so much!
