BandaCat 1 Posted August 9, 2008 For the past 4 weeks or so I have been experiencing nightly band pain. Every night I have the hardest time sleeping because my band hurts so bad. It's very difficult to lay on my left side. Finally between 1-3am I have to vomit and then my band feels better and I can sleep.< /p> The weird thing is that I have no restriction, nothing is stuck in my band, I've tried not eating for hours before bed and also eating a snack right before bed. Neither makes it better. And I'm not throwing up food, it's mostly bile. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? It's only been the past few weeks of my pregnancy. But it's terrible. I've had terrible all day morning sickness since week 6 and finally went on medication, but even the medication doesn't help. I'm hoping that it will end when my morning sickness ends but I don't know if it's just a band problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
selisejohnson 0 Posted August 27, 2008 i am 31 weeks now, i posted a few months ago wondering if my pain was band or baby related. well I found out that since everything was shifting around inside, thats where my pains were coming from. i still have the pain occaisionally at night when I lay on my side. I just switch sides and sometimes that helps. It is just the pressure of the uterus pushing up on your stomach most likely. you may need an unfil. I was told to get that done, but havent as of yet. I get food down just fine. hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BandaCat 1 Posted August 27, 2008 thanks, it's getting better. I am 17 wks now and still battling all day sickness and acid reflux, but the band pain is not as frequent now. I've learned that I have to have a completely empty stomach before bed, no Water nothing! I've slept thru the entire night 2 nights in a row now! Yippee!
