4 months post op and...



Recommended Posts

I got my first ever BFP on two home pregnancy tests!! My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 3 years. What do I do now? My doctors office is closed until Monday. I'm freaking out a little bit here. I'm superstitious so I don't want to tell anyone, because I don't want any congratulations yet. Do I look for a walk in clinic that can do pregnancy tests? I don't want to wait until Monday if I don't have to. Again, freaking out a little. Thanks for your advice!

Congratulations. I don't know if it's necessary to go to a walk-in for that unless you just REALLY need to know right now...remember it's cold/flu season and guess where all the sick people like to go! I would stay away from the "sick station" if at all possible!

Trust the home pregnancy test! I work in a medical laboratory for a hospital & we use the same tests you can buy in a store. Just make an apt with your ob-gyn for your first ultrasound, no need to pay for an office visit just to test!

Yeah no sense in going to a clinic since they will give you the same kind of test you took at home. I would just call your Ob/gyn on Monday and schedule an appt.

Thanks all! I called an ob, and he had a cancellation, so I was able to get in for a blood test. And yeah, it appears that i really am pregnant ????????

My first ultrasound is the Monday after Christmas. I am incredibly excited and nervous!!

      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?
