Hello and congrats! I just delivered my first baby 6 weeks ago, and I've been banded a little over 2 years now. I was blessed with a healthy and uneventful pregnancy. I did have to get half of my fluid taken out when I was about 25 weeks along because I was getting shoulder pain from being too tight. After that point, I started gaining weight and ended up gaining 48 pounds total. I'm going back to my surgeon in about a week to have my fill put back in so I can get back on track... and I'm looking forward to it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

I hit my goal only to have 3 pregnancies in 3.5 years. I swear, as soon as the sperm hit the egg, my hormones were out of control and I needed an unfill immediately. Right now, I have put on 50 lbs. (20 from the first one, 20 from the second one and 10 from the current one and I am 24 weeks) I plan on breast feeding so I am going to leave my band open about 6-8 weeks to ensure that I am getting good liquids and food in for him then I am going to tighten that sucker up :)
My only fear is that over the last 3 years, it has been all about pregnancy and not working out. I am not sure how I am going to incorporate that back into my life with 2 kids under 2 (I lost the babies in the first pregnancy.) It is definitely going to be a challenge but I also stare enviously as my old jeans and old photos and want that life back :)
Congrats to you!
