I have PCOS.... Lost 130lbs and got pregnant 6 months post op (paragard fell out without me knowing.). I am 13 weeks pregnant and doing well. No major tummy troubles or baby problems so far.

Ok... So I had a Paragard IUD in October. I found out yesterday that I am 6 weeks pregnant. They did an ultrasound and apparently the Paragard fell out because it is no longer in and only God knows where it's at.

While this is a BIG SURPRISE (We were not planning on anymore children) I need to hear from others that have had or are having babies in a similar instance. What are some struggles you have had? Are you still losing? Gaining? At this point my focus is keeping the baby and myself healthy.

Thanks

Yes, I wasn't pregnant when they put it in... I even had my period in November... I must've gotten pregnant in December with the IUD.

I had surgery in July 2014, I'm down 122 lbs. At the end of October I had the Paragard IUD put in. I am a couple of weeks late for my period, but wasn't too concerned because I just figured that with the weight loss and the IUD my period was out of wack. Well I just took 2 pregnancy tests and they are positive. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow, but wanted to see if anyone else has been through this? This is not what I was expecting or planning.....

My doctor never suggested a calorie limit either. 11g of Protein is great. I have an Excel spreadsheet that has almost 100 grocery store, frozen, and fast food items that are all high in Protein (and I'm adding to it all the time). Forum rules don't allow me to post it but I'd be glad to email it to you if post your email address or PM it to me. I've sent it to dozens of folks here on the forum. One of the biggest (and best) surprises I've had following my RNY has been the number of delicious, high protein options there are out there!!

Could you send me a copy of the spreadsheet as well? My email is: drumsby2@aol.com

Thanks!
