I am trying to get pregnant but I am worried about the port sticking out. I told some of my family but not others. I was wondering if anyone had pics of their belly and their port. I would like to see both either sticking out or not.

Thanks,

Flydove,

I just had a baby 3 months ago. I had no problems with my port sticking out. I was completely unfilled so it was like I had never had the surgery. If it wasn't for scars on my stomach you wouldn't even know. You should join the banded and pregnant thread on this website. There are other woman who are pregnant or trying to and have some of the same questions. Hope this helps and good luck.

Hehe, I tried to Google some pics for you but kept just getting Jachut's avatar. I'm 15 weeks but not noticeably showing yet, maybe I would be if I had a flat stomach to begin with, but with this mass of loose skin, who knowns when I'll look preggo. I'm fairly normal in the upper torso where my port is and not a sign of it so far. The degree to which it shows will probably depend a lot on where the port was placed. Mine is up high, just an inch or two lower than my bra band, so we'll see.

I'm now nearly 36 weeks pregnant and my port doesn't stick out at all. You can feel it more easily, but it isn't visible.
