Anyone get a fill during pregnancy?



Recommended Posts

I'm 5.5 weeks pregnant and constantly starving. I'm afraid to step on the scale because I've been eating so much/so often. I never used to snack between meals, but I'm starving by 10am and then again by 3pm. I'll eat a heavily Protein bfast (scrambled eggs with cheese and either bacon or sausage) and still am hungry much sooner than I used to be.

I'm not even that far along yet, so why am I so hungry? Has anyone actually gotten a fill while pregnant? Or is this (amount of hunger) normal?

No, I've never gotten a fill, I had a slightly unfill at 11 weeks. I dont think your doctor is going to fill you if you are pregnant though. Hang in there hun! You might not have gotten the whole morning sickness hit yet LOL.

I had a baby 8 months ago. I had the same problem you had and I called the doctor to see if he will adjust it. He almost chewed my head out because I needed to get it unfilled and not filled! Well i didnt do anything and just left as is since I was able to eat without restriction. Its ok to eat alot while you are pregnant- the baby needs it and you being hungry all the time is normal since your body is working tripple to make a baby. I only gained 14 pounds throughout the pregnancy and that was completely ok. My baby was born 7lbs 6oz, and my post preganncy weight was as is when I became preganant. Good Luck!!

I am glad I am not the only one wondering about this sort of thing.

I just found out I was was pregnant the other day, but I have been eating a lot these past couple of weeks (I am almost six weeks) and I was worried I would need a fill so I don't gain. But according to my new what to expect, the morning sickness doesn't hit until around week six. So we will see.

It's a myth that it's ok to eat more while you are pregnant or that you need to eat more. According to research you should only be consuming 300-500 more calories when you are pregnant. It really all depends on you BMI. Coming from someone who gained wayyyyy to much during her first pregnant (over 50lbs to be exact) be congnicent of what you eat and the effects of what you eat. You'll pay for it later. You should be drinking for two not eating for two. Your Water consumption should increase your calorie should only increase slightly.

I did get a fill shortly after I found out-- I had been hungry and eating more it was a long time since my last fill. So I got a half sized one (for me that is .05 cc since I usually get .1 cc). I am happy with it. I will likely not get an unfill unless I am having trouble getting food/nutrition. And then I would only get a partial one.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
