girl_barrie Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 When I had my surgery in July, I had told the nutritionist, Dr. Miranda, of my 7 year saga of trying to get pregnant with no results. She "guaranteed" me that with some weight loss, I'd be pregnant within a year. I smiled at what I thought was a vacant promise, and held very little hope. I had been thinking that at almost 40 years old, it was highly unlikely that I'd ever have children. Well, wouldn't you know, after only 7 months post-surgery and 50 pounds of weight loss - SHE WAS RIGHT!!! I am now 8 weeks pregnant and so excited it is beyond belief! Thank goodness my morning sickness is just a slight queasiness, something I can handle with the band, and so far, other than having to crush my vitamins and drink them in a nasty sludge my nutrition seems O.K. My questions are many. Have any of you been pregnant with the band? What were your experiences?
julie Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 As a former Labor and Delivery RN and fellow Bandster I congratulate you! For the pregnancy AND the wt loss! That is awesome! You go girl! Julie
