pregnant / lapband stuck episodes...

so i am 29 weeks on friday....i had all my fluid taken out of my band in the first trimester...but i have been having so many stuck episodes latey..i am just curious if my belly getting huge has anything to do with the restriction and stuck episodes?
just wanted to know if this is happening to anyone else?
thx,
trish

I haven't had any fluid out and now I'm starting to feel like it's getting tighter. I was hoping to go through the whole pregnancy without an unfill, but it sounds from your experience that I might need one at some point.

I am 19 weeks and had a bad stuck episode tonight. I did not get an unfill though at all. I am little scared to now though. My surgeon wanted me to be completely unfilled but my OB's said no. They are hoping it will help me to not get gestational diabetes like I had with my other three. I hope it does not get to bad or a will go in and take the tongue lashing.

Good Luck,
Emily

I'm empty too and I still feel like I have fill in mine. I don't eat squat! Cereal for dinner is my usual... mainly because I'm just not hungry and I have to force myself to eat something.

I haven't had any stuck episodes, though. Do you feel like your restriction has increased the farther you've gotten? Or is it possible that maybe you've got a case of "pregnancy brain" and are forgetting to chew chew chew? 

I would try doing soft foods for a few days.  Especially if you've had any throwing up.  Once I get my band mad at me I can't eat anything with out getting stuck.   Typically a day (two at the most) of eating softs and I'm good as new.     If it's from the baby pressing on the stomach you may have to eat smaller more frequent meals to avoid getting stuck.
Good luck!
