danaclark2 0 Posted January 16, 2007 Hi, all-- I haven't bee active at all here for the past 9 months. I was banded on April 18, 2006, lost over 25lbs, then found out I was pregnant at the end of May: stupid, I know, though I know my littlel Lily is not a mistake. I'm happy now to say that I'm just over a week away from delivery... On March 7, 2007, I'm scheudled for MY VERY FIRST FILL AFTER 11 LONG MONTHS... My question is this: should I request some type of check to see if my band is still in place, not eroding, etc. before I get my fill? I've never had a fill--was just about to get one when I discovered my pregnancy. Thanks--Dana Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheetsin 714 Posted January 16, 2007 Most surgeons won't order band "checks" unless they have reason to believe something is wrong. Congratulations on your baby to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danaclark2 0 Posted January 16, 2007 Thank you all!!! I cannot WAIT to begin joining you all in our weight loss journey....it's been so long-- 10 more days to go until Lily Jene comes into the world--then the weight loss begins... I haven't vomitted/heaved at all during this pregnancy--just mild heartburn, so I hope my band is in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alicat3924 0 Posted January 16, 2007 I would ask your doctor what he thinks and let him make the call. CONGRATS on your band baby! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StephC 0 Posted January 16, 2007 I think if he does it under fluro it should show that the band is in place - right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danaclark2 0 Posted January 16, 2007 I sure hope so--never been so ready to get this weight off. I was SO excited about gettting my first fill in May--then the positive pregnancy test. Don't get me wrong--thrilled about my little girl coming--but also ready for the weight loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
