I have had my band for almost 2 years now...I know....kinda sucks I got skinny and now I am prego!! But hey after the kid is born I can just get it tightened again! I have had all the fluid out of my band taken out. I was wondering if anyone else here has been prego with the band if your port hurts? I feel sharp pains every now and then with my port and then it is sore for most of the day. I know it is attached to your side and that getting a big round hard belly might cause issues. I am concerned that it might tear. Anyone experience this?
