Cautiously posting



Recommended Posts

Cautiously posting that I got a faint positive this morning!! It was a Clearblue easy (have heard blue dye tests are famous for false positives) so I went and bought some different kinds. I'm having gallbladder issues and was hoping to get it out soon but looks like that might be on hold for now.

Thanks! What does everyone recommend for severe Morning sickness? I was thinking I was having gallbladder issues this weekend but thinking now that its morning sickness (more like all day sickness)

Peppermint and ginger cordial helped me on my singleton pregnancies.. Nothing helped when i had twins. All day sickness is right. Congratulations I'm really excited for you.

Thanks! Wondering if I need to see my surgeon to get some Fluid out. Will that help with the pain/keeping things down? ETA: I never had morning sickness with my other boys! :-o

I'd definatly ring and talk to your after care people. They should have some helpful advice. Maybe even your gp if the sickness is severe. There are meds that can help. Ice lollies helped me they were refreshing..keep us posted.

Thank you! I had 1cc taken out of the band due to not keeping food/water down. I'm feeling much better now but still have morning sickness off/on.. I will be 6 wks on Tuesday :)

      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.
