I struggle every day. It's been almost a year. And yes I'm pregnant again. But I still mourn the loss of the wee one. I cried on my due date. And I'm sure I will cry when I come to the anniversary of the day the bleeding starting and the day I had to have the surgery. It's ok to mourn. Some people will say there is no reason to mourn a child that you never held in your arms. But I disagree. You held that baby with your heart. Your soul and your body. I don't know if you are religious. But that baby was born into heaven. And it may have been an early loss but it was a loss just the same. And you are a mommy to an angel. When people ask me how many children I have. I tell them. I have 3. One on the way and 2 in heaven. I miscarried my 5 year olds twin and the wee one last year. People look at me strange but someone who hasn't experienced a loss doesn't understand the logic. Baby dust honey. It will happen.

I had a missed miscarriage resulting in a d&c in October of 2013. I was pregnant again by dec. and I'm now 36 weeks. Baby dust to you sweetheart.

I am 36 weeks and have not had an unfill. 4.5 cc in a 10 cc band. I am 3 years post op. This far I've gained 18 lbs. my ob said there was no reason to have an unfill. She told me that I will likely be smaller after baby than I was before. Which I'm not happy about. I was a size 4 before baby. And struggled to maintain. My current insurance considers my band a pre existing condition. And the policy parameters cover nothing associated with bariatric surgery. So it will be interesting to see if I lose weight while nursing like the average woman does.

Hello everyone. I am 36 weeks pregnant. 3 years post op. I have gained 18 lbs. band is a 10cc and I have 4.5 ccs in it. I have never had an unfill. I'm curious. Did any of you breastfeed with the band. Was it hard to maintain weight after ?
