Thanks ladies. I do feel better

My son failed his twice weekly non stress tests and then would be on the verge of failing his biophysical profile test. He was safely Born healthy at 38 weeks. Each week I would anticipate his failing and being taken for an emergency c-section. I know its scary but trust your dr's know what they are doing and they want and healthy strong and happy baby just as much as you do!!

I had to do it with my preop pregnancy and it was awful (I know, probably not what you want to hear).  Is there an alternative they'd be willing to do?

Usually vit levels are drawn once each trimester. The bigger the baby gets the more he will take from u. Some obs follow it and some see their reg dr that follows their labs. I myself followed a dr that specializes in post wls patients as she was more up to date and more knowledgeable on treatment for certain vitamin defencies. The only prob I had was drop in b12 and continued anemia. Treatment was b12 injection everyother week and additional iron tab with improvement in both. Also continued monitoring if u choose to bf as again the bigger they get the more they take. Hope this helps
