Weight gain during period

So I had my gastric sleeve on October 18th and since been losing weight evenly. I was down to 209 and then my period started on the 5th and I jumped up about 5lbs. I wasn't really worried as I normally gain 5lbs around my period but yesterday was the last day of my period and I'm still up about 5/6 pounds. Any of you have similar stories? Should I be worried or should it go down in a bit? Any advice is appreciated! Also having my 2nd follow-up with my surgeon next Monday.

    Don't stress! Its common. The next week you probably will see a loss that corresponds with the gain you had!

    I loathe that kind of gain, because most of my bariatric Dr. an appointments are around my cycle for whatever reason.
