Pregnant after sleeve and tubal reversal



Recommended Posts

I actually had my tubal reversal before my sleeve. Reversal in 2012 and sleeve in 2014. I've been successfully pregnant about four times but no baby yet. Three miscarriages and the last was ectopic. I'm currently beginning an ivf cycle. Hoping this works. Dr seems to think a low egg quality due to my age or our sperm morphology is my problem now. I'm 39. We are still hopeful.

Just wanted to wish you the best of luck. My husband and I had fertility issues and multiple loss' but in the end were able to bring home two beautiful babies. It's a struggle for sure, stay strong.

I don't mind at all.

It all started with a pregnancy loss at 10wks, after we healed from the loss we started trying for another and we could not conceive. We tried for over a year and then went to a consult for infertility. They did testing, said we had low motility and I wasn't ovulating regularly and we got the title of "Secondary Infertility". They suggested meds and IUI and everyone thought we would get pregnant quickly. Well, we did IUI, 9 rounds total. We did 6 with Clomid, took a break for a couple months and then did 3 months with injectable meds (Gonal-F and Lupron). They all failed but we got pregnant the month after our last IUI, my OB said it was likely due to the meds still as they were still in my system. Start to finish from when we started trying post miscarriage to my son's birth it was 3 years.

I got pregnant again naturally when my son was 12 months and we lost the baby at 12wks. My daughter was a surprise, we conceived her naturally when my son was 16 months. I was shocked because we fully expected to have to do fertility treatments again due to the miscarriage and what happened last time.

We also had a loss years ago but that was a very early chemical pregnancy and I was 19 at the time, much younger than I am now. My kids were born when I was 30 and 32

      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.

      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.
