yup! i did well during pregnancy but noticed AFTER pregnancy i eat more. and i'm really noticing it. and my baby is 5 months. i just wanna say, its only been 10 weeks. cut yourself some slack. don't focus too much on that bc you still have lots of things in your body that aren't back to normal yet. i'm going to do a pouch test next week bc i feel like i need to get it back to the size it was before. 

About two weeks ago, I experienced some cramping and spotting, so I was scheduled for an ultrasound.  At that time, the baby should have been 7 weeks, but it measured 5 weeks, 6 days and had a heartbeat of 75 (heartbeat should have been over 100, I guess).  

I had another ultrasound on Thursday and this time it was really hard to find the babe.  I was told there had been no growth, still 5 weeks, 6 days and a heartbeat of 75.  

Of course, my first thought is that I'm not doing something right: not eating enough protein, experiencing too much stress, etc.  

I guess my question is if this has ever happened to anyone and the outcome has turned out ok.  I doubt my RNY is to blame, as I am 20 months out and all my labs have been fine. But I still wonder. 

Hi, everybody!  I used to be active on this forum a few years ago when I had my RNY (actually 5 years ago, WOW!!).  So, I'm not even sure what my siggie says and may have to change it, lol.

Two years ago DH and I started to TTC, but unfortunately we had infertility issues, I was dx with Diminished Ovarian Reserve 12/11. Anyways, I tried a lot of stuff and it took me going through 3 different fertility specialist, but my 3rd one was the charm and the treatment worked (IUI and injections) and I am now pregnant.

I have no idea if pregnancy is diff or the same having had gastric, but I do know that I've lost 5 lbs and in general don't want food. I just have no desire for it.  I take a prenatal every night and then a multi in the mornings, but I guess I'm more interested in nutrition, appetite, ability to eat, etc.  For instance, right now I am starving, but looking around my kitchen I just can't eat.  I have no nausea, just no desire to eat.  I'm probably going to attempt some cheese and crackers.

Anyways, just looking for advice, hearing other people's exeperiences, support, etc.

During Pregnancy I coould eat more than before and now after my baby is here I can still eat more. It has been 10 weeks since he was born. I thought my pouch would go back like it was. I am just wondering if anyone else is the same way and what to do about it. I have lost all but 10 pounds of  my pregnancy weight. I gained 46 pounds while preg.
