4 months out and 7 weeks pregnant!!!

We're so thrilled!!! We were using 2 forms of protection, and still are expecting. I called BTC and spoke to the nutritionist. I have to increase my calories 300 a day, take double the prenatal vitamins, and extra calcium supplements. I was scared til I talked to her. She said of course I'm not the first one this has happened to and both the baby and I will be healthy during and after pregnancy if I follow those simple instructions. I'll still lose weight even while I'm pg. I have my first OB appt. next Wed. I am hoping I can get an ultrasound soon. Please cross your fingers for me so we can have a girl!!! We have 2 boys and are ready for a girl now. This will be our last. Jessi!!!!

Jessica, OH how exciting. PLEASE keep us posted on your progress. I do hope to try for a baby next spring. Also there is a Yahoo group that supports pregnacny for WLS patients. Try to do a yahoo group search to find it. Sorry I do not know the link. I think I will find it just for future reference. Anyway CONGRATS!! God bless. Jamie

Congrat's Jessica. I'm so happy for you. I'll be praying for you to have a girl too. Keep the board informed.
