I'm 2 months pregnant and just got unfilled. I'm still losing a little weight so I guess that's good. I just pray I dont gain a whole lot while carrying this baby. This is me and my husband's first child and we are "Very" excited! Keep us in your prayers.

Oh yeah, I was banded Dec 16, 2005, when they say you become more fertile after you lose weight, believe it. I'm a true testimony.:clap2:

Congratulations!! I too am trying to get pregnant. I'm already 38 so the clock is ticking. Dr. Spivak gave me the okay to get prego once I've lost 50 lbs. I'm not quite there yet, but it's not too far away. I would love to follow your pregnancy and see how you do with the band. Please keep me posted. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Best of luck to you!

Babies are so wonderful! Start buying diapers now... trust me on that one. I recommend about 4 packs of each size to start. You will be glad you did it, and if they outgrow the size you can exchage unopened packages. That was the best thing I did during my pregnacy... except for growing a baby that is. Congrats!

Congrats to you and your husband!! I have a 6 month old and got banded in Feb. after having him.

Joey is our first and everyone kept telling me that I need to get my rest before having him. I was like yeah yeah yeah. Well, girl, take it from me...GET YOUR REST!! You have a long, tiring, but wonderful journey ahead of you. Our little munchkin is still getting up at night to eat once, so we are just starting to get more rest.

You have been blessed. Don't worry too much about your weight, you have plenty of time after to get back down. Just make sure you get your Protein and Vitamins in.

Good luck to you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. :biggrin1:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
