Concerns w/out answers...

So, Im 23, I was banded in March, and have lost a total of 35lbs.

I just found out I am about 7 weeks pregnant!

I asked my lapband doc. about having pains in my collarbone when i take deep breaths... anyone else having this? My doc had no answer.

I also have pain when I burp in my stomach, and Im not having much of an appetite at all... I just want to be sure Im eating enough for me AND the baby. when I do eat- I eat healthy! Cant wait to hear what everyone thinks! oh, and this is my first pregnancy!

Congrats on your pregnancy!! That is awesome. Most likely from your wieght loss, that's how I became pregnant all three times. That and God. You will be amazed how much your body is going to change. You'll have pains and other things just due to being pregnant. I'm not banded yet ank no longer able to get pregnant. I think there is a thread you could seach on banded and pregnant. I think most women have an unfill. Also the medical field is changing the weight gain amount for obese patients. So you don't want to lose, but may not need to gain. I think for prego and nursing moms you need an extra 300 calories added to what you need to maintain your weight.

God bless you and your baby.

Hi congrats! Im 7 weeks preggo with my 2nd child (1st band baby) i went and got a total unfill because of severe naseau...the pain u may be feeling could be associated with getting pregnant too early before your officially healed ( dont quote me on that one)...tummy pain is normal i had all the cramping til 6 weeks as long as ur not bleeding ur ok...i go for my 8 week check up on sept 2nd i cant wait...good luck hope this helps

Hi!

Congrats on being pregnant! My baby is now 7 months old and I'm just NOW getting back on this website!

If I had to guess, I would guess the pain is caused by gas. But, it's just a guess.

Good luck!
