Hi. I am new to this site. I desperately want to have a second baby but am 133kg (was up to 145kg I think) but struggling with weight loss. I am taking zanical. I had complications with my first pregnancy. Emergency ceasar at 34 weeks as fetus was in severe distress and small for term. He spent 3 weeks in ICU and he was very hard work for first 3-6 months due to prematurity issues. I think work stress may have contributed but no way to know 100%. I Was 117kg when I fell pregnant with him so my thinking is I need to get down to at least that before I start trying to conceive this time around. Have added pressure from hubby as he wants kids close in age (my son is now 3) and I am 33 and don't want to delay trying for too much longer in case I have fertility problems (have very irregular periods and still think first pregnancy was a fluke). I am considering lap band surgery but don't want to wait a whole year before trying to fall pregnant. I understand that the first three months or so would be a no so I could heal from surgery and my thinking is if I fall pregnant soon after that and weight loss too rapid I could get volume decreased? What are your thoughts. Anyone fell pregnant in under a year post op? Thanks.

      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!
