Anyone else? 26w preggo



Recommended Posts

Hi guys :) I found this board through a google search.. and I'm so glad I did. I hope you have some advice to share! :(

I am almost 3 years post op and 26w pregnant. I found in the beginning, I had slight morning sickness, but nothing too difficult to manage. Lately, however, I have found that I can't keep anything down! It's not nausea so much-- it just comes right back up. I'm wondering if anyone else had this happen? I watch what and how much I eat.. very small portions frequently through the day, but lately it doesn't matter.

I had an appointment this morning and lost 2 pounds since my last appointment, putting me at only 9 pounds gained in 26 weeks. I got lectured about it, but I don't know what else to do. The baby is measuring right on target and my fundal height is even measuring 3 weeks "ahead." I'm just so concerned she's not getting the right nutrients from me ...not to mention puking 3 times a day is so frustrating..

Before I got pregnant, I was pretty much at my goal weight for over 2 years... and managed it well.. hardly puked, etc. :(

There is a Veterans forum that may be of more help. I am sorry this is happening to you. I hope that soon this will pass and you will deliver a wonderful healthy baby.

I would see if you can go to a clinical center of excellence and see a maternal-fetal medicine specialist, especially one who can do a consult with the bariatric and/or GI departments. Hope you feel better soon, and congratulations on your pregnancy.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
