Oops...6 Months Post Op And Pregnant!



Recommended Posts

Oh boy!!! What a shock!!! My period was three days late and my hubby insisted I take a test, before giving me my half a glass of wine ( we are on vacation in Spain)

I peed on the stick last night and within 1,5 mins it came back positive!!

My head keeps asking how it happened. I had an IUCD placed shortly after my daughter (she is now 2) was born and I've been avoiding doing the deed when I'm ovulating, but I suppose somehow, something slipped through!

I am thankful for this precious gift and also very scared because this is totally unplanned!!!

Yup. I would never have an IUD just because when I was born, there was one delivered right along with me!!! LOL

Congratulations! Take good care of your health. The baby will take EVERYTHING he/she needs from you, leaving you depleted. You must consult your doctor quickly. Have fun! (now go drink some water;) )

I'm six months out also and just found out I'm pregnant. How are you feeling? Has the doctor freaked you out with worry?

Firstly, congratulations!!!!! So far, so good!! My doctor isn't worried at all, she did a whole batallion of blood and urine tests to check that my nutrient and Vitamin levels were ok, and then prescribed me a whole list of prenatal Vitamins to make sure my levels stay right.

My doctor has experience with pregnancy post sleeve as she and my surgeon are at the same hospital, so I am really lucky! The only thing she said was that post sleeve babies tend to be smaller.

On a personal side, I am almost 11 weeks pregnant and yet to have morning sickness ( don't know if it's got anything to do with the sleeve, but I am not complaining)

Again, congratulations, relax and enjoy the pregnancy and drink lots and lots of water!!!

Congratulations Ladies,

I have an IUD, and last night, I found out I am 19 weeks pregnant. I was sleeved on July 20th, so needless to say I cannot wrap my mind around all of this. I will see my DR., this week to discuss all of these things. I am so worried.

Thank you Cookeeeeeez,

I appreciate your honesty. I would not dream of planning anything like this. As a matter of fact, I got sleeved because I knew I was finished having children. I have four and thought I was done....surprise, surprise...

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
