pregnant and constantly vomiting



Recommended Posts

Hello Dr and every one:

I had the band done on september 2006 . I am now 36 weeks pregnant. I just had one fill before pregnancy.The beginnig of pregnancy up to about 2 months ago I was ok.I did not vomit as much.However, I have started throwing up when I had some small amount of food. Also, I am unable to eat or drink anything midnight or when I wake up until about 1pm( I throw up even small sips of water).last 2 or 3of times I went to my Ob/GYn he told me I had lots of ketones in my urine which are not good for baby's brain and told me I am starving myself .My husband has started giving me so much guilt and checking me up so that I wont throw up. he tells me he wont forgive me ever if anything is wrong with the baby.. I have moved to a state other than the one I had the surgary I now live in brooklyn,ny. I am so desperate and I dont know what to do I have also lost about 3 pounds this month. what do you suggest regarding the diet I need to follow till the baby comes. Do you think I should get and unfill or can I go on without it til delivery.does unfill now harm the baby?

Thanks alot

Your first concern should be yours and the baby's health. I would go for an unfill or at least have some of your fill removed. You really don't want to have this hanging over your head when you are trying to enjoy your brand new baby. Are you still taking your prenatal Vitamins?

Since you're in the home stretch, I would get an unfill so you can make sure to be feeding the baby right now. Get it re-filled after you deliver.

An unfill is definitely the way to go if you are vomiting regularly. You will feel so much better and be so much healthier if you can get more nutrition in as well. You can always get another fill once the baby comes.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
