Guest guest Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Hi, I had lap RNY Sept 2004. So far I have lost 178 pounds. I found out I was 5 weeks pregnant a few days ago. I was wondering if anyone knows if you still get morning sickness after gastric bypass surgery. I had it really bad with my first two children before surgery, but so far I have not gotten sick yet. I don't want to get morning sickness of course, but I have always heard that it's a good sign of a healthy pregnancy. Thanks for listening!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Great question!! I'll be interested in knowing that answer too. I was horibly sick with my first one (she's almost 11 now) and it made my pregnancy less than enjoyable. I'm hoping with pregnancy after RNY it will be better.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 I was also very sick throughout the whole pregnancy with my first 3 children before my RNY... with this one I have not been sick at all. I actually had a hard time believing I was pregnant because of the lack of nausea and vomiting this time. Guess it just depends on the person Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 Becky! First of all, CONGRATS! I am TTC right now, surgery date 5-9-03. With my son I did not have much morning sickness at all. At that time I was told by older relatives that I would have a boy bc of the lack of Morning sickness. Old wives tales say that girls cause a lot more morning sickness than boys. Maybe it's a boy this time. Jeanette in IL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2004 Report Share Posted August 8, 2004 oh becky, i'm afraid to tell you, that you can get morning sickness after bypass...i got it so bad, they have me on meds 4 times a day to tryt to keep anything down. my morning sickness with both my son (pre-WLS) and this one hit right at 7 weeks. with teh child pre WLS it did not stop til he was born, so i'm suspicious this will be the same way. lol. mainly tho it's not food you throw up, it's saliva as your food goes out of your tummy so quickly. good luck, i hope you don't get it, but you most likely will. zofran is a wonderful thing tho...lol...(that's the med i'm on to prevent throwing up) aka mom2ben99 (jennilee75@...)
