C section vs VGS
Brittneysue12345 replied to mamakatx3's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Was the worst feeling in my life. I remeber waking up in recovery a good friend of mine was there by my side as they planned to work that day for me.. And they said maternity was coming down to check on baby. I asked if baby was ok.. 5,000 times. Once j heard him I was in relief. Pain but relief. The average was 3 a year on pregnant women and my doctor had the highest # of those. A change we could have both died.. And a greater chance baby. He's 4 now almost 5 ???????? -

@@Shanni1269 Well I went and I wasn't put on schedule lol but I did get to see dietician. 2 days later seen nurse and psych and scheduled with surgeon. I started Protein shakes for Breakfast as a beginning to start. I'm at a rock for weigh loss now because I'm limited as my insurance does bmi at surgery request , not bmi at beginning. I'm at 41 but with comorbities I can go (she suggested 36) so it was 35 and give them an excuse to exclude for that. Everyone has been great and they were super excited that I had my planned things printed out history meds docs surgery their requirements and insurance requirements already. It made things very smooth! lets kick ass this 6 months to get to the date !!! I deserve it, my family deserves it Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App And thank u so much for asking!!!!
