    How long to get pregnant

    She stated in her post that the doctors cleared her to get pregnant. I think what she was asking was how long did it take people to get pregnant when they were trying... Not how far out from surgery.

    Missed period 4 months out...

    Oh my gosh!!!! Congrats! How exciting for you!!!
  3. Obviously I realize that most of you are NOT medical professionals... I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing... Following my surgery which was on 4/25 I had an "extra" period in may and then my period came right on time around the first of every month.. Now here we are in September... I'm down about 40is lbs and my period is no where in sight. I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative. I have since scheduled an appointment with my obgyn and I have a follow up appointment with my surgeon in a few weeks. Anyone else experience missed period after being regular?

    Missed period 4 months out...

    It's a yay! I would have been happy either way but I would like to wait until at least a year out from surgery. I'm currently in nursing school so I would like to wait for that to be done too but when it happenes it happens. My dr did call me with the results from the rest of my tests and everything looks GREAT! I'm going to chalk it up to my body adjusting to all the wonderful weight loss!!

    Thank you so much! I hear of so many people who have extra periods but found nothing on people missing periods!

    Missed period 4 months out...

    Have you missed any periods? I know I have read a lot about the periods getting worse which mine have but I just thought it was weird after 3 months of normal and my weight loss some what balanced out to miss one now. I'm the least stressed I have been in months... Like I said I did go for blood work and should have some real answers soon just didn't know if anyone else was experiencing something similar

    Missed period 4 months out...

    I took the pregnancy test at about 8 days late. My gyn called in a script for a blood test today. I had some mild cramping around the time of my period which is usual and then it just never came. Since my surgery my period hasn't been shy about showing up! Lol it's been there FULL FORCE it's just weird to me that I have no spotting no nothing. Did you get pregnant with your daughter after surgery? My husband would be THRILLED if I was pregnant... I would def have some mixed emotions being so soon out after surgery. All these body changes are just so weird sometimes.
  12. I have no idea if this is caused by the surgery or not but my knees are KILLING me! I can't even lay on my side in bed because it hurts so bad to have my knees touching each other. I had to get up and move several times during my class tonight because I had a terrible throbbing pain in my knees. I have seen a lot of people post about hip pain but not so much the knees and I haven't been able to find any answers as to why this may be happening...??? I checked my capillary refill and I do not appear to be dehydrated but I did increase my fluid intake... Any ideas as to what's causing this...??

    My knees HURT!

    Oh my... I hope that I don't have the start if arthritis... It runs in my family... My mom got it fairly early but I'm only 27... Lets just hope it's lack of vitamins or minerals or water or something that is a quick easy fix! Please keep me posted!

    Anyone From Buffalo, Ny Out There?

    Yes we do! Why are you being resleeved? I know how you are feeling. I originally had the band. On top of feeling sick all the time I felt like a total failure when the band didn't work for me. I hope you have better luck this time. When is your surgery?

    i need pepto!

    I bought a chewable acid reducer from Walmart that my doctor approved and it worked great. I slept with my head elevated too and that seemed to help. I also noticed when I wasn't drinking enough my heartburn was worse. I know this does not answer your pepto questions. sorry! I hope you can get some relief!

    Have to be re-sleeved!

    Hmm.... I can't see the signature. Maybe because I'm on my phone. Hoffman works with 2 other surgeons. You could even ask one of his partners. If you would feel more comfortable I can help you get phone numbers for some of the other surgeons. My mom had gastric bypass through sisters with Dr. Carawana(sp). I wish you the best. Keep us posted!

    Have to be re-sleeved!

    I'm just curious as to who your surgeon is. I had Hoffman and I LOVE him. But I also ask a lot of questions... But there are a lot of surgeons doing it in buffalo now. Hoffman did my band to sleeve revision in one step and it has been a piece of cake as far as recovery!
  18. It will get easier. I felt like that too when I dirt went back. After a few work outs it has gotten much better. It's like you have to start all over again!

    Thank you. I can't believe how "lifted" and toned it looks compared to a month ago.. It's crazy to see the changes
