Hello everyone,

I am almost 4 months postop and i just found out that i am pregnant. I am worried cause I really want to have an healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. I am looking for suggestion from people that have already gone trought this experience as a gastric bypass patient. Any advice? How was your nutrition? What Vitamins did you take?

Help please,

Rossella

Nothing wrong with asking here, but the subject is definitely one to discuss with your obstetrician. He/she may want to consult with your bariatric surgery practice (the RD, perhaps), in which case get them connected. As an innocent ignorant bystander, I'd say that proper nutrition for your baby comes first and weight-loss is secondary for the time being.

Thanks for sharing your happy-lovely news. All the best to you.

Someone once wrote something that as long as you are eating 1000 to 1200 cal a day and taking all your supplements that you can expect a healthy baby and mommy.

Congrats on the baby. You definitely have to talk to your Dr's, both.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
