I can relate! I am almost 6 months post op RNY and am 7 weeks pregnant as well. I also had PCOS among other fertility issues before surgery. I'm so nervous with getting pregnant so soon.
Have you found any remedies with the nausea?
Thank you! I didn't think of my water intake affecting my nausea. I've been drinking plenty of water today and it's made a huge difference.
I took the recommendation of zofran to my Dr but she won't prescribe it for me... she says to many risks to the baby??
I guess I'll continue keeping up on my water intake and hope gravol will eventually work!
So i'm 16 months post op from RNY, I have lost a total of 162lbs so far. I'm not at my goal weight but that's okay. I'm currently 9 weeks pregnant and wondering how will my diet change during pregnancy. I had briefly discussed this with my dietitian but she had only said I would increase carbs. How many calories should I be taking in? Currently I eat 1000-1200 calories a day and work out 4 times a week for 60 mins.
Thank you!
I was told by my surgeon to wait 18-24 months post op to become pregnant. Long story short, I have horrible issues with birth control and I ended up conceiving 5 months post op. And again 5 months after that baby was born. And again 10 months after THAT baby was born. I had my RNY 10/18/11 and before I reach my 4 year surgiversary I will have given birth to three babies.
Try nibbling on some saltines before you even get out of bed in the morning to help settle your stomach a bit. Other than that eat small, frequent meals throughout the day and make sure to drink plenty of water. My nausea is so much worse when I'm on the dehydrated side.
Finally, Zofran is my BFF. Maybe ask your doctor about a script?
Congratulations and good luck with your pregnancy!
Don't really have much advice, but I wanted to say congratulations! God's plans are definitely bigger than ours! :)
So I tried to get pregnant between 2008-2011 I was told that due to Endometriosis, PCOS and issues with my tubes that I would most likely not be able to get pregnant without going thru artificial insemination. My daughter is 12 and I accepted the fact that I would have 1 child. Well I'm 6 months post op VSG went to the doctor for nausea which I thought was due to a sinus infection and was told I'm pregnant!!....I'm a ball of emotions....Happy, nervous, concerned etc etc....Any advice would be great. I believe I'm about 7 weeks will confirm with my OB on Monday.
Hi all, I just found out a couple weeks ago that I expecting. It was a complete shock as I was following my clinics recommendations... But we are very happy about it.
I'm 6 weeks pregnant and this week has been the hardest. I can't seem to keep anything down. Morning is the absolute worst. Trying to get the first meal in when just the idea of any food makes me want to get sick.
Is there anyone who has been through pregnancy after surgery that can relate and give me any suggestions?
TIA
