I wonder about this all the time.
I am 3 years out but now pregnant. Obviously scared to gain the weight that needs to be gained. I am no health nut and I suck at protein intake ... I feel as though I can eat a lot.. I mean A LOT.
Has anyone had the doctor go in there and check to see how big the pouch is now?
I always worry I may need a revision or something.
I am worried to death.
I am 13Weeks and I gained 5 lbs.
Hi,
Have you tried the Post Op Pregnancy forum? They might be of more help then this forum.

I thought for sure that I had really expanded my pouch, but I had a scope recently, and all that has happened is that my pouch is totally intact, but my stoma has relaxed and allows food through more quickly. Which is why I can eat more! So, it is up to me, if I want to maintain, to just use what I have learned and make the right choices. So far, it has not been a problem
Congrats on the new baby coming! YAYYY!!
