Banded March 2009 Pregnant Dec 09



Recommended Posts

Hi I am 27 years old and I was banded in March 09 and I was 314 lbs then I went down to 230 and had two fills then I got pregnant in Dec 09 and no more fills. I have not gotten a unfill because I am scared to do that. Plus my insurance changed and I can no longer go to the same doctor but he said I could pay $100 to get fills done when I am finished with the pregnancy. I went up 249 lbs and now at 7 months I am now btwn 261-263 I flucuate daily. So I awaiting a call back from the doctor when I can go to him after I have the baby is here. I want to breast feed as well. So any advice until I get my phone call. I dont want to get anyway. I cannot wear my size 20 or 22 maybe 24 pants, but mostly I wear Old Navy yoga pants (xxl) and tube dresses (xl). :) I am happy since this my second baby but for the first 3 months I was everyday in the bathroom vomitting a couple times of day after that I was good sometimes now its just once a week, but i have kinda give up on eating sometimes since its so much that I cannot handle, especially starch or very concentrated sugar. I drink loads of Water but also diet coke/pepsi. I work & go to school and I have an active toddler. Since I live in NY I always walk and live near an elevated train station so I am constantly moving to combat my desk job:thumbdown:

My body is more like a pear and I carrying low just like with my daughter. :sigh:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
