8 months po op and pregnant...

[Guest guest]

Hi all, I am new to the group. I had Roux-ny Jan 6th 2004. I have

lost about 90 lbs. I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant. I

think about 4 to 5 weeks. I will have an ultrasound this Thurs., or

Fri. I have two year old twins.(boy/girl) The doc told me that she

wasnt going to do an ultrasound because my Hcg levels were probably

not high enough being that I should only be about 4 weeks. I call

her back after having blood drawn yesterday and they were 5,500. She

says that I may just be a little further along than we though, or it

might be two, but we will have to see. I am concerned that I will

not be able to nourish that baby/babies. My husband is upset,

because we didnt plan this but we were also not careful enough. If

anyone has any advice, or a similar story please share it with me.

Kerri,

Congrats! I hope your hubby comes around soon. I don't have a similar story to

share, but I just wanted to welcome you.

Kerri- Welcome! I had my gastric bypass in feb of this year, and very

unexpectedly got pregnant in may. I am now 16 weeks and my OB said to just try

and

get 300 extra calories aday, because the baby will just take what it needs.

Everything will be fine. Good luck.
