31 wks w/twins & PB constantly



Recommended Posts

Anyone experienced this too? I'm 31 (almost 32) wks with twins, measured full term a few weeks ago and am even bigger now. Lately I pb after only a few bites. I'm not sure if it's the babies and not having any room (I have one baby laying sideways right at my ribs) or a problem with the band.

I never got an unfill for the pregnancy, so the band is tight already. The past few days, I'm pb-ing everything except liquids.

Thanks for any thoughts!

If you are pbing everything except liquids, you should probably go for an unfill. At this stage, the growing twins will use up most of your calories you are consuming anyway. It is possible that you have some swelling from the babies moving and it is agitating your stomach/band. To keep from having band issues later and to be able to consume enough for the babies, I would suggest calling and getting unfilled asap. Good luck and congratulations on you little miracles!:thumbup:
