Baby!

Well since it's been two years now since my surgery, and with the recent events of the birth of our baby I thought I'd drop a line :)

The pregnancy went fine, had no problems at all. toward the end, she kept kicking my port and / or my uterus was putting pressure on it, so at 38 weeks my OB and I agreed to induce labor early just for comfort.

I am going in May 1st for a fill time to get the weight loss started again.

Here is pictures of our little one, the miracle that would have NEVER happened if it weren't for the lapband!!!!

She is darling,.....but you already knew that. Congrats on the smooth sailing and the beautiful little angel and welcome back. ~Mandy

Thanks for posting. I am 31 and was banded 3/16/07. I have a 21 month old boy and would like to have another baby once I finsh grad school and get my weight off. (Before I turn 35) I hate to ask but how much did you gain. When did you have a unfill? I gained about 40 pounds w/ my baby but I started out at around 195. (not good) 21 months later I still weighed 232. I could not get myself together to lose the weight. I am happy with my decission to have the lap band. I have lost 18 pounds so far. My only concern is how pregency will affect my band. Any more details would be great. Congrats on such a BEAUTIFUL BABY!!!!!What a Joy!!!!!!!!

So beautiful! You must be so proud, as you should be. God smiled down at you and sent you a sweet angel - so precious. Congrats, and best of luck on your weight loss journey.

I gained 50 lbs during my pregnancy, mostly from my eating habits :rolleyes:

I started at 270, (original weight before lapband was 380) I gained the 50 lbs, and have lost about 30 since the baby was born.
