Idk if I should say sorry or congratulations. Well is it dangerous since you can't eat & just had surgery? Can they reverse you now so your baby can survive? Is this your first child? To me kids are a blessing but it's at a short notice so soon after surgery. Wishing you all the best.

I think you will be okay. Don't stress. At my first consultation appt the PA told me that they had a patient that was pregnant at the time of surgery because she(unbeknownst to them) had unprotected sex the night before surgery. They of course did a pregnancy test on her just like they do on all female patients and it came out negitive. Anyways, the baby came out fine and everything. During the pregnancy she had to see a special nutritionist though. Best wishes for your two tiny precious bundles of joy! You can do this! It will all be okay. It always is. You just keep on keeping on. I wish the best of health to you and your babies.

My friend was pregnant in the first 6 months and did just fine. Just make sure you stay in close touch with your OB and Bariatric Sugeon. And keep up on you supplements/Pre natal vits. She actually had to switch to liquid form thru the first trimester thanks to morning sickness.

Congratulations! This is certainly an exciting year for you! It sounds like you are already doing the right things by getting early prenatal care. Obviously you will have to work really hard to get Protein, Vitamins, folate, Calcium, and Water - but healthy little twins are the perfect motivation!!

Take care of yourself and enjoy this magical time, babies are such a blessing!

Research, research, research the different high risk ob's in your area. Get consultations before you commit to any one. I had a friend whose insurance wouldn't let her switch when she realized that her high risk wasn't progressive enough for her liking. Find out what their plan of action is for all the what ifs. Even when they tell you to stop what if-ing things that haven't or probably won't happen.

      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.
