pregnant and constantly vomiting



Recommended Posts

Hello Dr and every one:

I had the band done on september 2006 . I am now 36 weeks pregnant. I just had one fill before pregnancy.The beginnig of pregnancy up to about 2 months ago I was ok.I did not vomit as much.However, I have started throwing up when I had some small amount of food. Also, I am unable to eat or drink anything midnight or when I wake up until about 1pm( I throw up even small sips of water).last 2 or 3of times I went to my Ob/GYn he told me I had lots of ketones in my urine which are not good for baby's brain and told me I am starving myself .My husband has started giving me so much guilt and checking me up so that I wont throw up. he tells me he wont forgive me ever if anything is wrong with the baby.. I have moved to a state other than the one I had the surgary I now live in brooklyn,ny. I am so desperate and I dont know what to do I have also lost about 3 pounds this month. what do you suggest regarding the diet I need to follow till the baby comes. Do you think I should get and unfill or can I go on without it til delivery.does unfill now harm the baby?

Thanks alot

Your first concern should be yours and the baby's health. I would go for an unfill or at least have some of your fill removed. You really don't want to have this hanging over your head when you are trying to enjoy your brand new baby. Are you still taking your prenatal Vitamins?

Since you're in the home stretch, I would get an unfill so you can make sure to be feeding the baby right now. Get it re-filled after you deliver.

An unfill is definitely the way to go if you are vomiting regularly. You will feel so much better and be so much healthier if you can get more nutrition in as well. You can always get another fill once the baby comes.

      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?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
