Losing too much weight...11 weeks PG
I am looking for some advise. At 10 months post op I find myself pregnant with twins. I have horrible nausea and as a result I am hardly getting in 500 calories a day. I have lost 20lbs in the last few weeks. I am not even able to get in my vitamins. I cant tolerate protein shakes. I am trying to get in at least one Ensure a day. I am thinking of trying a high calorie nutrtion bar of some type. I am not sure what to do. My surgeon has no suggestions. My OB has said if I continue to lose this rapidly I might need to be put on TPN. I dont want to end up in that boat....Help please?
If i recall correctly at about 11wks M/S got worse for a week or two then got much much better. Of course TPN is no one's first choice but if you need it please don't hesitate. You need nutrients and so does those little babies. You might only need it for a week or two. I'd try eating anything at this point.
I hope you feel better soon!
