Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Thanks Shalee!

Movies do that too, but I thought I would just be ecstatic and bouncing off the walls and farting rainbows! But I'm really the opposite, like Oh no what did I do, I can't change my mind now, etc.

The gyno called, they are calling me in an Rx for prenatal Vitamins, the nurse had a funny accent and was telling me what's in it and she said "And it make you baby smart!".. made me laugh.. then I asked if they had chewable, she said "No.. and it very big!" so I reminded her of the band, and she said she's calling in patient's choice on chewable selection at my pharmacy.. not sure what that means but I'll find out. They don't see you till 7 weeks out, and they calculate off of the first day of my last period (July 17), so I go first week of September for an ultrasound.. based off my own calculations I think I'm 2 weeks out, I'm very confused with numbers. Mom said based on my calculations I wouldn't be able to pick it up on a test yet, but I thought it could. I dunno, guess they can tell me how old it is when I go in?? They also said they will call me in anti-nausea meds for when morning sickness hits..

My family has a history of no morning sickness, so I'm hoping I don't either.

Oh and even though she's my normal gyno, they won't let me even schedule an appointment with her until they clear it with my insurance. My insurance pays it, so I don't know why they couldn't just look.. waiting for them to call me back so I can give them the info, then they call me back and let me know, THEN I schedule it.

Laura-yes the test CAN pick up a positive this soon. I found out WAY early with Macy.

If memory serves me correctly you count 40 weeks from the first day you started your last period.

Hah Hah, yesterday I decided it would be May!

But then mom tells me it's 40 weeks, all this time I thought it was 36 weeks, and between mom and websites and the doctor, I have no idea how to calculate it anymore. I think it's a Jamaica baby- Aug 2-6 conception. So if that's right, I wouldn't count 40 weeks from Mid July would I?

Aww thanks Tracy! Whoever sent the texts, thanks! I lost all the V's numbers when I got the new phone, and haven't put them in yet. That's why when you called Haydee I was hesitant, I couldn't figure out who it was.. when you asked what I was doing I recognized your voice though!

Not at all, that's why I posted it here!

I'm not even announcing it in the banded & pregnant area till at least another month. We told my parents (my mom squealed and cried a little).. they BOTH said "No more tunica!" & my granny (who keeps sayin she wants me to have one before she dies!) and she said "I think I can stick around 9 more months" lol.. haven't told his parents, I figured he can decide when to tell them.

      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.
