OH Snap!!

I'm 6 weeks post op as of yesterday, have lost 28 lbs total and today just for 'kicks & giggles' I took a pregnancy test and it was positive!!

We only had sex once since surgery, and I have always had fertility problems. I used ovulation sticks, charting, daily temps for 2 yrs to get pregnant with my daughter and now i'm going to have an Ooops baby!

Wow, I would have never guessed this would happen so quickly. I don't even have any fills in my band yet.

Is it too selfish to want to continue losing weight while being preggo?? Its alot to take in!!

My surgeon made it very clear to me that getting pregnant within the first year of having the band was a definite no no so I would have to guess that you should speak with your doctor about the concept of the band with pregnancy. In general, it is not recommended to actively try to lose weight while pregnant. I would certainly say dont get any fills.

Pre-band (like 18 years pre-band), I lost 23-25kg while pregnant with my second son - under dr supervision. Son was a very healthy baby. Just work closely with your dr.

Congratulations! Get in to see your Doc ASAP. My son and DIL gave us our 1st Band Baby a year ago last May and she's the joy of our hearts!
