I am a January bandster and just found out that I am 10-weeks pregnant! I had my 5th fill last Tuesday and the doctor had to take a little out as I was way too tight and I found out I was pregnant on Thursday. I asked my OB about the lap-band and whether I should get the band unfilled and he said NO! He wants me to leave it as is. I had gestational diabetes with both prior pregnancies and he thinks the band will help with this pregnancy. Has anyone had any experience with this? I left a message for my lap-band doctor, but I figured I would check in here as well to get some feedback. Thanks in advance!
Congrats everyone! I just had my second fill! The # on the scale since my last appointment didn't change but I know I did. All of my clothes are bigger and I really feel great and full of energy. I know it'll take more than a couple fills to get the scale really moving, but I am so looking forward to it.
