Hello Everyone,
I am new to the site.  I just want to say congrats to everyone on the weigh loss and the new additions to all of your families.  Accorinding to the dates of my last period I am 4 1/2 weeks. I go the the OBGYN on 7/27.  I was three years post op on 5/7/2007. I had Surgery in Langhorne, with Dr Pupkova (I REALLY LOVE HER).  My husband and I have 1 daughter named Rheese, she is six years old.  She has been complaining that she has no one to play with, and she is lonely.  She tells us everyday how bad she wants a baby sis or bro.  We havent told her yet, we are going to wait for the 3 month ultrasound so she can come with us to see the baby on the monitor. We cant wait for her reaction!!! We have the "IM GOING TO BE A BIG SISTER" T-Shirt ready for her!!  
Started @255,Currently @155,I managed to get to 147lbs at one point, it was a unhealthy diest, so of course I gained the weight back. I am so nervous about gaining a lot of weight during this pregnancy. I have been eating right since the day I found out.  I have a cheat snack once or twice a week. I know that I need to gain the weight for the baby. I just want to gain any extra so its even harder to get it off after the baby is born.  I am starting yoga next week. I gotta start being more active for as long as I can.  I did see Dr Pupkova about getting pregnant and shared with her my weight gain concerns. She did guide me in the right direction. Can anyone give me any advice on how they kept the weight down during the pregnancy and how they got if off after the new addidition. How much did you ladies gain, and how long did it take to loose it again?

 I don't have any advice on the weight gain cause I am new to this journey as well but I just wanted to say congratulations.

I just reached the halfway mark in my pregnancy and last week is the first week, I had a gain of 3 lbs. I lost weight before that because of bad GERD and not being able to eat anything. Talk to your OB/WLS surgeon. My OB has worked with other WLS patients, so we set a goal of 20 lbs for me. She suggested I keep my exercise routine up.

Congratulations!!!

CONGRATS!!!!!! I'm so happy for you!   I have a 3 year old son who wanted a playmate as well and we're now expecting our second one/playmate for Tyler :) 4 and 1/2 weeks huh?, so we both will be due around the same time. I just found I'm preggos too, so no advice on the weight gain part, but I just wanted to stop by and say WELCOME TO THE SITE and CONGRATS on your pregnancy. I hope you find all the answers you need and keep us posted on your progess.

Congrats on being preggers :-)
Ive got about 10 more weeks to go and I've gained between 20 and 25 pounds. The scale keeps moving up and down lol!
I have to keep an eye on all the damn carbs I eat! (wayyy too much)
I'm sure if I watch them then Id lose a few or just not gain as much in the next ten weeks!
