Re: 2 yrs post op and 7 weeks pregnant. Wow do I have questions!

[Guest guest]

Hi Vicky, I am 7 weeks also. We are due around xmas. I am already

showing a little also, and was quite suprised. I didn't think that

this would happen until 3 months. I have not gained any weight, but

I cannot button my size 10 pants without being in alot of

discomfort. I had to go get size 12 elastic waists. Hope things go

good for you. Also, has your appetite increased or decreased? This

week, I have been so hungry. Wanting something every 2 or 3 hours.

I'm eating more than usual. I thought this was the time for morning

sickness. I wake up starving. Hope this slows down.

I am eating more than I usually do too! But I dont think I have

gained much but a few pounds can still wear my size 12's that I wore

before but dont wear the belt that I used to! Im just gonna try and

watch out for eating alot of junk and just work it off later!

Congrats to you too!

Hi Vicky

You might have read my previous posts? I am nearly five YEARS out

(8/31/99) from my RNY Micro-Mini-Pouch 2cc surgery and I'm now 10wks

pregnant. I am showing BIG TIME. I started wearing maternity jeans

about 2wks ago. I normally wear a size 5 and cannot even comfortably

wear my sweats!

My doctor said to expect looking two months further the entire

pregnancy. He said this is due to it being my second child (first

was also a c-section) and from the Open RnY. Says that my muscles

have been cut " both ways " and that there is no way they are going to

be strong against the growing uterus.

I am being considered high-risk. Not because of the actual surgery,

but because of my nutrition problems and non-absorbtion issues. I've

had two miscarriages in the first 6-8 wks and they think it's because

the embryo wasn't getting enough nurishment. This time around, I

found out at 3wks so I was able to get my Iron IV treatment right

away and all is going fine so far!

Best of luck to you too....
