Had my lapband in 08...and i jus had a baby via c-section on 03/30/10....the problem im havin in indegestion, heartburn and some pain in my stomach and port side...could my band have moved due to my c-section or could it be my galbladder? I can def feel my food goin down when i eat and sometimes i feel like i have restriction (but i had all my fluid removed at 4 weeks preggo) the pain hurts so bad that it radiates from back to my stomach (kinda like contractions) can anyone give my any input..i have a doctors appt on fri and will call my bnad doc and make an appt there 2

Hi everyone! just checkin in my c-section is April 8th and i hope i go before that date because im miserable....too date ive gained 22 lbs which is awesome i feel like i cant eat anymore lik eim runnin out of room! how is everyone doin....ur babies must be gettin so big by now! Good luck to all

Congrats! Good luck!

Im 32 weeks prego and have gained 15lbs....ive been doin real good...guess it all depends on the person....no1 can tell im 8 months pregnant which makes me sad but o well 7 more weeks and its over...havin my C-section April 8th

im 29 weeks and have gained 10 lbs so far..i go back thurs for my checkup will let u know if i gained anymore

good luck on ur journey...the reason i got the band was to have a 2nd child....everyone has different reasons why they want to lose weight....when the time comes and u get pregnant jus take it easy...i got a complete unfill 4 weeks into my pregnancy and have only gained 10lbs (im currently 29 weeks)...im sure ull do fine and as soon an the baby comes u can go back to ur band ways....good luck

I agree..i got a total unfill because i was worried about complications and i didnt want them to keep stickin me with that needle....also what if u get further along and are filled and have to keep gettin emergency unfills thats not good for u or ur baby....i jus hope nothin happens to my band as my belly gets bigger...my port side is really startin to hurt!

Hey Abby! I had my band unfilled when i was 4 weeks preggo....since my last ob visit (at the end of nov) i only gained 5lbs..food sometimes hurts goin down dependin on what i eat (mainly doughy food)...evethough i dont have a fill i still have some restriction (not like before tho) i know what u mean about carbs i crave them all the time...hopefully i dont gain to much weight (im halfway done!) hope all is well with u! -Cindy

Hey Guys! Just an update had my 20 week ultrasound today and they told me its a girl!!! she's measurin alittle small but they told me not to worry and they will rescan me in 4 weeks for growth...the doctor told me he has faith that the baby will grow in 4 weeks!! hope everyone is doin well!

Hey Laura, I know how u feel.. i had all my Fluid removed when i was 4 weeks prego because of dry heaves! now im 16 weeks and feel so much better! good luck

i know what u all mean with keepin food in ur belly...if i dont eat like every 2 hrs i get real nauseaus its disgusting...i have only thrown up twice in 15 weeks which isnt bad...when i got pregnant i was 208 now im 203 which isnt too bad....cant wait to look pregnant this time around with my son i was just fat...i hope this time is different i want to have the cute belly (ok it may not be that cute but i want a belly lol)...4 more weeks and i can find out what im havin yay! hows every1 doin with pregnancy? how are the girls who already gave birth doin? hope all is well with everyone!

hi..i take 2 flinestones chewables a day (both by band doc and obgyn said its as good as a prenatal vitamin) i did get all my fluid removed at 4 weeks because of dry heaves and nasueau...good luck

i just went for my 12 week check up..my doctor told me not to get the swine flu shot he doesnt believe in the vaccine yet...but he did tell me to get my flu shot! she can call he obgyn and ask them at what point inher pregnancy can she get a flu shot
