Should I feel my Port when Pregnant

[Sugargirl 1]

I am now 12 weeks pregnant and seem to be getting a belly ( First pregnancy I am new to all this) and for some reason I can feel my port now. when I am rubbing my stomach. Is that normal??? Should I be feeling it without pressing?

i talked to my OB about this and she said everything is fine, she said my pregnancy should have no effect on the port hole- but it does protrude and feels weird! I am 29 weeks and i feel it all the time! I plan on having my surgeon check it out right after the baby is born, but from what I read on here- it is normal.

Good Luck with your pregnancy!!

Thank you so much for replying!!! This site is great! I got my band in August 2009, found out I was pregnant in December 2009. I was shocked! So many questions are being answered on this site !

you are so welcome! This is my first baby and i get so nervous about band stuff. There arn't a lot of resources for pregnant bandsters out there! I was watching youtube and there is a girl who does a video on what it is like to be pregnant with the band- it was VERY helpful- her name is "swish"- check it out, it will make you feel so much better about the port!
