Pregnant after DS and LBL
Hi all. I'm Amy. I'm six weeks along. I had the DS seven years ago and have maintained my weight loss for the most part. (I'm 20 lbs heavier than my lowest weight.) I had a lower body lift not quite 5 years ago. I hope my stomach doesn't go back to how it looked before the plastics. I'm eager to see how my labs are as my iron and vitamin tend to stay low and I haven't been the greatest at taking all my vits. Since finding out about baby, I'm taking my vits and pre-natal plus extra folic acid as I should.
Hi Amy, that is so awesome that you have maintained for seven years! I'm only going to be 3 years post op from Gastric Bypass RNY in March but I hope that I can be like you and be maintaining still after 7 years like you! Congratulations on your pregnancy, thats pretty much what my OB told me, just to take my pre-natal along with the rest of the vites that I usually took before getting pregnant and since I am expecting twins he told me to add an extra folic acid 3x a day.
