Guest guest Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Hello Ladies, I got to California safely. But had a funny experience in the providence airport. I went through the screening metal detectors and they went off. I thought it was my bracelet or my necklace...Anyway.. So they take me over to the special area where the lady screener can have a look at me. She goes over me with the wand...beep beep for bracelet and necklace. But guess what it keeps going beep beep over my tummy!!! Finally she makes me go into another room where I have to lift up my shirt and show her I am indeed truly pregnant and the metal detector is still going beep beep. So dummy me finally says...Ummm I had gastric bypass surgery and have 8 rows of staples in my stomach do you think that could be making the machine go off? She and I both started laughing and I was allowed to go and get on my plane. That didn't happen in August when I flew so I don't know what's going on now. If the baby has pushed up my staples into a big enough mass to make the machine go beep beep or what. But I thought it was hysterical. They lady kept apologizing and (my 4 year old son) kept wondering why the machine kept going beep beep on my tummy. As we were walking away asked " Mommy is the baby made of metal like a robot? " I almost wet my pants!!! So now I'm here and safe the flight was uneventful and as easy as going coast to coast can be. Talk soon! Chrystal Wife to Jace - together 6 Years!
