I didn't get an unfill with either of my babies. My PA got angry with me after my son was born and said I could've killed him. That was bullship! I haven't been back to that doctor since then! After my first I got a fill to help get the baby weight off but I was so tight I couldn't even drink water. My daughter is 8 weeks old and I didn't get a fill or unfill with her. I am having issues eating right now so I think my hormones are screwing with me. I wouldn't recommend a fill until you are done breastfeeding...maybe that's what's making it weird for me! I am filled to 6/10 and I had no issues eating during pregnancy...just now! I'm hoping this passes soon cuz I'm hungry!

If you feel like you're not getting enough food why don't you add something like 2% chocolate milk...good protein and carbs for a quick pick me up. I am going in for a fill while I breastfeed because I'm not losing any weight & I hope I don't have any issues afterwards...

It seems like every time I log on the chat has either changed or I can't get into it anymore...frustrating!

I was afraid that would happen so I only allowed a little bit of an unfill...my dr said they would give me a fill if I still gained too much. I gained 40 pounds and now still have 20 to loose to get back to where I was before Pregnancy. Can you talk to your LB dr and see what the options are?

I feel your pain...I gained 20 pounds with the pregnancy and I want to get a fill too- but i think I'll wait until I'm done BF. I want to get pregnant again in a year, but not until I drop 40 pounds....which is SO hard without a fill!

Thanks for all your replies and voting! We named the baby Sebastian Ezra & he was happy & healthy!

I don't get any errors...just a big empty box. I'm not sure what's up either!

The band helped me out a lot, but I also used an ovulation kit and took metformin to regulate my periods. We got pregnant the first try after all three of these...

My dr let me make the decision. Stand up for yourself and maybe offer to take out a little and keep in touch about what you're feeling. Some people get really nauseated and need to be unfilled. I let them take out just a little bit and I have gained about 25 pounds- which I am okay with. It's nice to be able to eat some during the pregnancy- but I can't wait to lose it again!

Hi everyone! I can't ask my family for opinions on baby names because they just make fun of the names! I thought a roughly anonymous poll on the lap band forum would be interesting!
