  2. Hi All, Just checking in, I am now 17 weeks and have only gained 8 lbs!! YIPPY!! I have been really scared about gaining especially with the unfill. Doing well except I feel like my port is the size of my baby! LOL! Take care everyone!
  3. Thanks for the words of encouragement! :whoo:
  4. Doing ok. Got a complete unfill, waiting to see how much weight I gain! I have an appointment Thusday with OBGYN. Everything is great - end of 11th week! bexleygal - we are only about a week apart! Take care mommies!
  5. Hi All, I am 11 weeks along. We are very happy. I had a complete unfill (really didnt want it). Dr. said no choice, he didnt want to worrie about low birth weight of not enough nutrition. I hope I dont gain too much!! Good luck to all!
  6. Thank you for your in-site. I have kept a journal and do seem to be eating enough. That was a great idea!
  7. Thank you for your insite and congrats! I have the same Dr as last time - he is great! SO far he is more excided that I have the band. I think I am getting enough nutrition so far so I am filling great! I will keep you all posted!
  8. Thank you all so very much. I dont have morning sickness yet...I didnt with the first (non-band baby). I am a required cs so the take the baby early. I have been eating very well, but definetly think I will try the journal to see what I really eat in a day. I will keep you all posted - so far so good!
  9. Hi All, Well only 8 months and I managed to get knocked up! We are very happy! I am just cncerned with the band and all. My OBGYN sees no problem, the LapBand nurse wants to take out the fills. I feel as if I di eat enough and am taking my pre-natals. Please give me any advice as I am in desperate need. I have had NO complications and done very well. Lost 75 lbs in the past 8 months. I LOVE MY BAND! :help:
  10. I was not told to do that - I can tell you however if I do eat bread, rice or Pasta I am full in 2 bites. I have been very sucessful and havent missed the carbs. I still have everything I want besides those three things...best of luck to you!
  11. I am so happy that I am now in a 18 - would love to see what you have! In addition I have great Jones NY Suites in a 24 if anyone is interested.
  12. Congrats! :clap2: I knwo how you feel! I went shopping and went from a solid size 24 to a 18/20! I have lost 28 ibs. What a diffence.
  13. Hi Merideth! Welcome! I was banded on the 14th - doing great so far.
