Almost 4 months post op and I just found out I am pregnant



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I am almost 4 months post op and just found out that I am pregnant. I am a little worried for the nutrition for the baby. Any advise? Anyone went trough this and has any advice on how to have a healthy and succesful pregnancy? What Vitamins did you take? And how was your eating?

Please help,

Rossella

Work this through your nutritionist. Call their office today and inform them that you are pregnant and seek advice.

I second James' comment. Contact your nut/doctor asap. I've seen people have healthy, successful pregnancies this early post op but you're going to need constant supervision and to put in a lot of extra effort to make sure you're getting everything you need. Take care! Get in there and speak to someone soon. Best of luck to you. :)

I got pregnant at 18 months out and am taking 2 prenatals per day. Plus Iron and Calcium. And they've been checking my blood work frequently for any nutritional deficiencies. We planned it with both OB and surgeon to make sure we knew we were doing everything we could to be healthy.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
