Go get at least a partial unfill. If you're getting stuck on almost everything, that's an indication that your band is too tight, and you're most likely going to end up doing more harm than good. If you're too tight and can't eat a normal diet, you'll probably resort to eating "slider" foods that slip through the band easily, and then you'll most likely end up gaining weight anyway.

Like you, I was concerned about gaining weight during pregnancy, because I know how damn hard it is to take it off. Even with the band, I had to eat right and exercise my butt off! But when it came down to it, it's about my baby and getting adequate nutrition for her so that she can develop properly and be healthy. As long as you are mindful of what you eat, you should be able to keep it under control. Then, get filled back up and get back on the program once your baby is born.

You need unfill.  You need to be able to eat so the baby can get nutrition!!  Call you dr today!

Get a little unfill - if you're tight now it will likely only get worse as your pregnancy progresses and you start to retain more body fluids.
