I saw there were two other ladies that were also due in Feb and I was hoping maybe we three can stay in touch on here!

My story

Realize in Jan of 2010 lost 50lbs and have gained 10 of it back since Feb of this year....grrr. I am working on losing it right now. and then I hope to not gain more then 10-15. I only have 3.5 cc's and I do feel tighter in the past week or so.

Same here I am on BabyFit and of course none of them (or at least no one has mentioned it) is banded. I am glad there are a couple of us due around the same time. I am nervous about my port. I have pain with it when I do new things. So I am sure its going to get painful the bigger I get.

MS has really hit me. I thought it was my imagination toward the end of last week. But over the weekend I know its not my imagination. food helps but nothing sounds good if I am starting to feel ill. And I told DH its not like I can eat all day. I have been sucking on jawbreakers today and that seems to help also. My last pregnancy I had blow pops that helped lol.

I am also due in Feb and I havent told a soul but of course my dh. I am so nervous bc I had a miscarriage already once and eventhough when I went to the dr he said everything was great adn that the fetal heartbeat was strong im terrified of not making until the 2nd trimester. I am so happy I have others to talk to who understand my concerns. What did everyone do about prenatal Vitamins? I found small ones but they made me sooo nausous and I even threw them up? I think I am going to ask my dr what to do when I go back next week.

I am just using the ones that you get at Wal Mart. Last time I couldn't do them because they made me sick so I did the flintstone chewables.< /p>

Hi! Congratulations to all! I'm due in October and I have a tip for the prenatal Vitamins, try taking them right before you go to sleep. I think that really helped me, I still take them before bed even though morning sickness is long gone. Good luck!

I gained about eight lbs trying to get pregnant. and I have lost 3 of them! I am still worried about gaining weight though.

How is everyone feeling?

I am super excited to know the gender as well. I have 2 teen daughters from my first marriage, but after almost 6 years of trying with my current husband--I will take any baby this time around! I think my in-laws are dying for a boy and so is my hubby, but they of course would never say that!

I have my gender scan Sept. 23rd. Anyone else schedule theirs?:)

I'm due January 24th....that's almost february. Can I play along? LOL

I just scheduled my gender scan yesterday. I'll be getting it on 13 September. My husband and I are dying to know what we're having.

It took us 6 years to conceive, so we're happy with either a boy or a girl, but we sure would like to know what clothes to start picking out :)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
