Anyone Notice Lapband Is Tighter Since Pregnant

Hi! Just wondering if anyone else has noticed a significant change in what they can eat since they found out they're pregnant? I read somewhere that one lady did, but I don't remember where I saw it. I have a 6cc fill and my surgery was 9/29/2011. I just found out yesterday by home pregnancy test that I am pregnant...Yikes! Whole 'nother story...lol. Anyway, sunday I ate the way I've been eating, than all of a sudden yesterday I could barely drink Water. Now today, the same feeling. What's going on? My last fill was the end of December so I've had plenty of time for it to "settle" in. I'm only JUST pregnant so it's not like the baby is pushing on anything. So what then? Why the sudden change? Any theories?

I'd appreciate any comments. Have a nice day!

Wendy

Yes! For the first two months I felt the band getting tighter and tighter until I wasn't able to eat anything solid. Now, I didn't have much of an appetite because of morning sickness. When I was hungry and could tolerate more than a soup I couldn't get down anything. The most solid thing I could eat was ravioli, which I never eat but I didn't want to starve the baby!! My surgeon took 3 out of 6 ccs from my band and I felt great! Good Luck ladies.
