So, I turned 20 in March. I got banded at 18 in November of 2009. As of my year anniversary in 2010 i had lost 100lbs. I am now 8 months pregnant, and have gained a good 35-40 pounds :[ So im just wondering how long I should wait before i get filled. My surgeon de-filled mine at 11wks and i am ITCHING to get a fill. i plan on getting it done within a week of baby girls arrival but alot of people (most of which do not have a band) think its to soon. My OB doesnt really have an answer, but i have an appointment with me surgeon next week but was hoping to get some other opinions before then.
