Hi all,
 I'm looking to get some advice from people who've been banded..... I had lap band surgery 5 years ago and have about 1 cc in a 10cc band.... I'm 9months pregnant and aside from what seems to be normal nausia and morning (ok... more like all day) sickness in the first trimester things seem to have been going well.....
The past two days haven't been going as well... I'm worried that I might need to get an unfill as both lunch and dinner did not stay down:(
It seems like when my daughter stretches sometimes she pushes against the port or the band itself... is that possible??

I hate to say it but it could be just being preggo.  I was sick the entire 9 months with my first child and that was before I had anything done.  I was sick from morning to night.  Everything I ate didnt stay with me.  If you are worried about it, I would ask my doctor.  That is just my personal opinion.  Hope all works out for you.

I think it could just be because the baby is really large now. My band was really tempermental during the last month, some days I could eat alot others hardly anything and my food would come back up. I really don't think having 1 cc removed from your band is going to make a difference if that is all you have in there then it's probably just how your body is during your 9th month. Hopefully it will not be too much longer.

I would take it out also. I have heard horror stories about labor causing stress on your stomach making your band tight and people having to have emergency unfill right after delivery. After deliver should be a special time for you and the baby, good luck!

If it lasts much longer, I would call your surgeon.  I have days where I super tight, and days where i just have normal restriction.  It may resolve itself...
