2 NSVs for the ladies - beware guys GYN mentioned!

Okay, update!  I went for my annual PAP and to talk about having my IUD removed since I am almost 1 year post op. The doc congratulated me for the weight loss and being off diabetic meds (Insulin and oral). NSV #1 - I was NOT in a fat-girl gown!!! And the regular size could WRAP around me!!! She was surprised that I wanted the IUD out after only a year since it can be in for 5 years. Did the PAP (NSV #2 - she didn't have to push on the speculum or use a longer speculum like before losing the weight guess the hoohoo has lost weight too!), talked about removing the IUD, and got a mammogram slip. Oh, she also gave me a script for pre-natal vites. She is happy to remove the IUD and also happy that I waited to talk to her first and not try too soon after my banding. She said if I get pregnant that I could still have carbohydrate sensitivity and we'll just have to watch that since I was diabetic w/ Kylie. But, she is very happy that we are starting out with a MUCH less risk factor. I will need a repeat c-section.WOOHOO!!! :) She also said if I am not prego within four months that she'll refer me to the fertility group, which I'm not sure I will bother with. Been there, done that, would possibly consider doing again, but not 100% sure I want to bother with it. I'd be fine with having just my Kylie, happy to have Kylie plus one, but I don't like my risk for more than a singleton pregnancy. So, recapping the NSVs: 1-No more fat girl gowns!!! 2-Skinny poo-see!

I am so happy for you!!!!! 

But Girl I am ROTFLMBO!!!!!!!!

I love the #2......   

Atleast I am not the only one lol

Girlfriend, let me tell ya, I need to lose MORE in that area! hehehe  C U Saturday!!!

That is such a great feeling!!! Congrats!!!

Your post made me smile.  I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you and hubby.  Another baby on the way would be wonderful. TraciL

Woohoo! You go girl! :-)

Hey Ter!  I had to double check myself when I put that gown on.  I was like, wait, wait a minute!  This isn't the usual bed sheet!  It's a NORMAL sized gown!  AND the little sheet they give you to put over the front of you even covered MORE than usual. hehehe  It was all in all a good feeling.  Heck, even the PAP was done and over without any aggrevation! :)  C U Saturday!!!!

I read your summary today.  I also had Dr. Averbach do my surgery--I had lap band.  I could use some emotional support right now.  I had the surgery on 8/6.  My husband who wanted me to do this so much can't understand why I'm kind of down in the dumps.  It's really hard, as you know.  Sigh.  I'm already a depressant.  This just isn't helping.
