Any of you girls had the test yet??? Mines 4/10 and im very nervous. I want to hear it went fine so I don't have to worry lol Kind of just want to get it over with.
I'm 5 1/2 yrs from RNY and a couple of years post panni. I have had some other surgeries as well. Today at my 12 week visit my OB said I will probably have to be automatically scheduled for a C-section, but not because of either of those surgeries but because I had a vaginal sling done 10 yrs ago. I want to avoid a C-section as much as possible as I have problems with anesthesia and surgeries in general (wounds healing, infection, etc.). I'm seeing a high risk dr in a few weeks because of prior health issues, I'm hoping she changes the whole C-section idea. My scar from my panni has started becoming a little sore, so I have been applying lots of cream.
Last November was my 1st year anniversary of VSG. A couple weeks later I found out I am pregnant. So far I am at 20 weeks and gained about 18 pounds. My Dr. said she doesn't want me to gain more than 20-25 pounds through the entire pregnancy and I'm almost there. My good eating habits have gone down the drain, all I want to eat is candy, bread and such and I am eating all the bad stuff! I had no morning sickness or anything, the only reason I know I am pregnant is because I have no period and when I go to my ob visit i hear a heartbeat also, my belly is growing and lately I feel my lil cupcake throwing parties i there!
We are overly excited to have a new baby, this will be our 4th but our other kids are 18, 16 and 14yo.
I am not sure how to go back to eating better because it's like I don't care but I do, I don't want to get big again, please help!
I was on Zofran from 8weeks until 13 when the morning sickness stopped. didn't start gaining until then and everything is ok now. Just hang in there it should pass.
I am 24 weeks pregnant and had the sleeve 2 years ago last month. I had morning sickness and didn't feel hungry until about 12 weeks. Ive gained 5 lbs so far and am on track to gain about 20-25 total. Ive been doing prenatal (I was religious before getting pg and in early pg but since about 16 weeks its been lacking) 2x a day and vit D. my md checked my levels everything came back good except vit. D and slightly low vit A. Good Luck the hunger will come trust me lol

I am using a Britax MARATHON 70-G3 Convertible Car Seat purchased from a car seat finder site the site was really helpful ...
I have a daughter 3years old and using a range rover ....
I have pcos and had very irregular cycles before weight loss surgery. I did however conceive 3 times before i had surgery. It was only when I was able to lose some weight. Before my surgery my periods were 100 + days apart and my pcos symptoms had greatly progressed. I had became borderline diabetic as well. Two days after surgery I started my period and as I lost weight my periods started getting more regular every month. I am 20 months out from surgery and have regular periods every 30 days for probably 14months. I am now 6 weeks pregnant after trying to conceive for 1 month. We were in total shock after it took over 4 years to conceive our first child. I did an ovulation test and got a positive ov test and it worked the first time. The only part of pcos that i still experience is some hair growth on my chin. So, i'd say your chances are pretty good for things to improve :)
Thanks for your responses :) I'm still not experiencing much hunger. I guess I should be thankful, but I am in that stage due to the lack of pg symptoms, I keep wondering if everything is working as it should. My last pg's I had crazy hunger! I'm sure the further along I get it will pick up. I have occasional breast tenderness and that full feeling in the lower abdomen. I had my vitamin levels checked last week. I'm waiting to hear back on that.
