Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 For those of you that read my earlier post; I've been having a hard time eating anything. I'm not physically sick, but I'm near 5yrs post-op and I'm eating like I'm a few months out! Before I could even ASK about extra vitamins, eating more, etc...he came in (much quieter than usual) did the abdominal/uterine check, said that the heartbeat sounded great (150) that the size of the baby and uterus looked great...and that he was sending me to another high risk doctor. Then he informed me that I have lost nearly TEN pounds in the last 6wks! As I said, the only way I'm able to eat is to take a few bites here and there...and I told him that the only thing I'm craving is ice cream. He looked at me seriously and said...eat ANYTHING you can! He said that the baby is great, but I'm (ME) malnurishing myself. My bloodwork came back good...I'm showing BIG TIME...and I'm losing weight for the first time in three years. I feel like I'm eating too much junk food (simply because it's easily obtainable and I work full- time) and I am shocked that I've lost that much! He also said that the high risk doctor will probably prescribe me a weight-gain high protein drink...and that I'll have to drink several a day. All in all, I've lost approximately 14 pounds...aside from having food back-up my pipes...I don't know what I'm going to do! Any thoughts? PS My next u/s is scheduled for June 30th...hopefully finding out the sex! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
