Just found out

Took a home pregnancy test and it was positive, I am 9month post op. I am wondering about vitamins and protein, did anyone have to change their intake. RNY doc didn't call me back, but PCP said my vitamins where OK.

Thanks Michelle

I don't have RNY but from what I have seen most do well with just adding folic acid but get your blood drawn to check your vit levels. You will also need to add in carbs and don't be surprised if you can eat more than you could pre-pregnancy.

Welcome and Congrats!!

I pretty much doubled everything! Took it twice a day... The dr's added a prenatal with folic acid in it too, but could not take it because it make me so sick!

you can replace your multi with a prenatal... about 100 g of protien... congrats and welcome!

Congrats on the pregnancy!

Hi! i had my RNY 6/29/10 im now 13 weeks pregnant! my surgeon and ob said if it was before 6 months they would be worried and advise an abortion but as long as i do everything they tell me they aren't too worried. I was told to up my protien to @ least a 100 grams dont do prenatals stick with my chewable bariatric advantage. I do get an u/s every doc app i got to. they also were seeing me every 2 weeks but this week they said see you in 4 weeks! so im guessingthings are looking good :) good luck and congrats!
