Surgery 8/8/16. Im 82 lbs down. hubs and I decided to start trying for a second child since I'm at a healthier weight now and our lo is about to turn 6! It's been very busy and not a lot of time to make whoopy, but ONCE, but I'm late and JUST took and test TWO lines! I'm so nervous!!!!! I just happen to have an appointment with my OB next week to start the discussion, but welp, looks like God beat me too it. I don't know if I should tell hubs yet or wait until the dr next week? I'm nervous I'm not getting enough calories, or taking the right Vitamins. Omg she could keep going. Please help!!! Maybe the test is wrong????

Congratulations!!

Definitely talk with your surgeon's office and your nutritionist about getting enough food for the baby. They may want to change your guidance now that you are eating for two.

Best wishes!

I lost the baby in June, but am currently 9 weeks pregnant. Still no support from my surgeons office [emoji20]




So sorry for your loss love..

You’re back pregnant now so that’s AMAZING [emoji169] did you do anything different after your loss to increase your chances? Or was it kind of automatic?

      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.
