Hello all!
So I'm not pregnant yet - but we're in the planning phases right now and it's looking like I probably will be in the next few months - assuming I don't have any issues getting pg. I haven't the last 2 times (though they were pre-op).
So I'm Cheri - from close to Toronto Ontario Canada. I'm 35 years old and I have 2 daughters - 9 and almost 6. I had Duodenal Switch May 29, 2009. My highest weight was 426lbs. I am now approximately 185lbs. I'm still about 35lbs away from goal - but I'm not sure I want to wait too much longer (given my youngest is almost 6) and I'd be happy where I am now - so I think we're going to delve in.
I'll be seeing a High Risk OB throughout my pregnancy for a few reasons. The first and most obvious is because of the DS - but I also had pre-eclampsia in my last pregnancy (was induced at 37weeks after having been on bedrest for 5 weeks) and also have a long history with depression and anxiety.
Anyway, that's me - can't wait to be participating!

I had the Duodenal Switch! Do yourself a favour and check out www.dsfacts.com - especially if your BMI is over 50!
HW: 426/SW: 421/CW: 165/ GW: 150 Current BMI is 26.6!
