I am 7 weeks pregnant, almost 2 years RNY post-op, and recently had my first OB/GYN visit.  At that visit, I was given a list of the tests that would occur at which points.  At no time will any blood tests be ordered that will measure my protein/iron/vitamin levels.  

I know that my surgeon's office will order them if I request.  My question is, did you monitor your nutritional levels during pregnancy, and if so, how often or when should I get them run?

Thanks!

Well Dr. was shocked but baby was still very high and in right corner; he thought for sure she was head down and he was feeling butt; however, ultrasound proved him wrong.  We have set the date for Monday to try to turn the baby first.  At min we are hoping to get he baby down some to be able to pull out easier if csection is necessary.  If successful full head down turn, they will induce; if unsuccessful, I will head to csection....so only 5 more days until I meet this little soccer player that has been in my ribs for 39 weeks! 

Hope everyone is have a good day!  Stacey

I take a prescription vitamin also called Pre-Nexa, I know there's a lot of different Nexa's, but thats the one I take. 

I am 34wks and have minor issues throughout the pregnancy. Last week during my stress test and ultrasound baby wasn't moving like they wanted. This week he was moving more but it took so longfor him o move. I'm getting so nervous. I go in now twice a wee****il my due date. Anyone have a similar situation? I am really just wanting someone to make me.feel better.

I did it was negative, I am on cycle day 32 today so my period is late but last month i was on day 36 before it showed up. I think I will wait and if no period by Friday I will test again.
