Didn't they test you pre-op for pregnancy? Man, every time I had any test pre-op, i was tested. Even though i'm 52!!

So...is this happy news or not quite....?

If I were you, I'd be at my 24 hr Walgreens buying up pregnancy tests to see for myself!!

Congratulations if you are!!! Yay!!! :)

I gained 60 lbs + with each of my 2 kids, I was able to lose most with the first kid, not at all with the second kid. I used to dread my checkups because I would gain so much each visit. The sleeve may well be a blessing for you!!

You know what? This actually may not put a 'bump' (lol) on your weight loss. Babies don't use their moms current fat storage to help them grow. I suspect that you will be pleasantly suprised at the shape your body is going to take. You'll be losing fat where it's been stored, but you'll be growing a beautiful bump. I think its great!!! Just make sure you eat really healthy and take your Vitamins. That's going to be extra important now.

And your little baby is going to have LOTS of 'sleever aunts & uncles' to help watch over the little tyke! We want ALL the details.

Chin up, in 9 months you'll have a beautiful baby and as a sleever you'll be able to lose any extra baby weight pretty quickly. Although i really doubt you'll gain a whole lot of extra weight.

Hugs!!

      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.
