Hi, new to this board and 2 lines on the pregnancy test

[Guest guest]

OK Hi!

Umm, I took it twice and the second time it was perfectly clear... I

am pregnant.

I am Post op about 14 months. I have had Lap Band in August of

2003. I have gone from around 355 to around 235. My band doc told

mast December that I could get pregnant at any time. I have a 9 and

a half year old child. I am FREAKING OUT!

With my last pregnancy I knew I was pregnant cause I was nauseaus

right away and my brests were sore. I have that now. I was late as

of Tuesday morning. I know its early, but thats how my body works.

I am calling the OB tomorrow but this is a done deal!

But I am FREAKING OUT. I just got a good fill on Monday and I dont

want him to take it out. I know I have to be able to eat more but I

want my fill. Yes I know I am being irrational, but thats a pregnant

womans perogative right? Yesterday I was dizzy all day long. I

pushed myself to eat as much as possible and drink drink drink.

I also take medication. When I spoke with the OB on friday he said

that they were all OK for pregnancy but still, I dont wanna take

them. Has anyone taken AMbien, Lexapro and Celebrex while pregnant?

I am calling the OB again tomorrow to get an apointment and will

discuss all of this to hime. I heard about the lap band thru him, so

I know I will be able to get some good advice and proceed from there.

OK, thats all tthe band related reasons why I am FREAKING OUT. Here

are the non band ones. I am 10 years older than the last time. I

will need a significant raise to be able to afford this and so will

my husband. I am going to have to move to be able to have room for

another child.

BUT, I AM SO HAPPY!!!! I cant believe this! Its unreal and amazing!

I would not have thought 12 months ago that I would be ABLE

physically to get pregnant again!

I am sorry this is so long!

Also please, if you want to congratulate me please dont. Our custom

is not to use the word " Congratulations " but to say " It should be in

a good time " .

I look forward to many months of getting to know and learn from all

of you.

Thanks for letting a crazy pregnant woman rant for a while!
