sleeveittobelieveit 6 Posted July 20, 2015 I just got a positive pregnancy test last night. I am just a week shy of being 6 months post op. I am terrified, and don't know where to begin. This is my first pregnancy ever. Very unexpected. I reached out to an obgyn & my surgeon. I have yet to hear back from either one. Am I supposed to be jumping on a prenatal right away? Do I quit my current Vitamins? do I take anything more? How should i be going about eating? More? add in carbs (i'm a very low carber)? Like I said I have no idea where to begin, and I don't want to jeopardize myself or the pregnancy anymore than I have already. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jane13 2,256 Posted July 20, 2015 @@sleeveittobelieveit - you have done the right thing by contacting the professionals. If you don't hear from them within the next 24-48 hours I would make a trip to the OBGyn office. but that's me ;D Congrats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngelEyesInNJ 187 Posted July 26, 2015 Congratulations on your pregnancy!! Do you know how far along you are? I would start on a prenatal and the OB can give you a script for a better one when you see him/her. When I had gottn pregnant I contuinued to eat as I had been except I felt like a bottomless pit so I would eat until I was full but it was never an issue. Just make sure you continue getting your fluids in and protien. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
