Banded January 7th, lost 63lbs, (was 325 ish), 10 weeks pregnant ... in shock as 41 years old with kids 11 and 7 and had no others planned. Excited though!!

In UK so all the medics are over reacting and treating me as high risk even though last two pregnancies were fine. CVS being done Friday.

Band is 9ml full in 14ml band and I plan to keep it filled for as long as possible. I still throw up a lot but the weight loss is worth it.

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

Just my opinion, but if you're throwing up a lot I'd have some Fluid removed from the band for sure. Vomiting is major cause of slips and you definitely don't need to deal with that on top of being pregnant. Better safe than sorry.

Best wishes to you.

Congratulations!!!

I agree with Mis73 about taking a little out. I guess in the UK you can probably get a slipped band fixed under your health care system, but that would not be something I would want to explore while pregnant.
