Can Pregnancy do something to the band?



Recommended Posts

SO I have a question, I was banded for the second time on January 16, 2006. I lost weight, I went from 296 to 227 in about 9 months with a 2.6cc fill in a 4cc band. I got pregnant Dec 06, had the all Fluid taken out, gained about 35 pounds (which was better than my first pregnancy, that was 65). Anyway, she is now 20 months old and I CANNOT get past 235! I have had fills, I just had one Monday March 30th. She would not tell me what she gave me, she said she did not want me to "fixate" on the number. When I left the office she said you WILL lose this time. NOT, I felt like I had restriction the first couple of days and now, I have to make myself eat 1 cup of food and make myself STOP. Well last night I was hungry, I ate a WHOLE 6 inch sandwich and about 10 tator tots. I should not be able to eat that much, right? Anyway, all this babbling, my question is could of slipped or something, and not up but maybe down, because it takes alot to make me feel full! Any thoughts would be great.

I wish I had an answer for you, I think of theses things from time to time seeing as my honey and I haven't had kids yet. I know there is a forum on here strictly about the band and pregnancy - they might have an answer....
