Pregnant with the lap band


Why is it that no one blogs about being banded and pregnant?
Or am I just missing something?
I’ve looked quite a bit, and I can see those that announced they were pregnant and then what they were having, but what about being pregnant after WLS? You know, the nitty gritty details we all love.

I sure wish someone had, because….

I’m pregnant and well, you know... I have a lapband.
I’m going to try and blog for the duration. So far it has been a crazy learning curve, a 15 pound learning curve.

Cheers to new territory.

  2. I didn't blog about my pregnancy bc I was too scared to talk about it at all after having gone through 2 miscarriages. I hardly talked about it in real life until I was almost 7 months. I spent the majority of last year pregnant and delivered a healthy baby girl in December. I would be happy to tell you my experience with pregnancy and Lapband if you wanna hear it. Feel free to email me. Congrats!!!

  4. Congrats!!! I'm so excited for you!

    The gal who does my hair has had a band for 6 years and about 3 years ago she had a baby. But I totally know what you mean...seems like I hear of bloggers who "announce" they are pregnant and then disappear.

I have no advice to offer you as the lap band goes, but I know you will do great. Just enjoy and cherish being pregnant and having a new baby! Lucky little boy/girl to have you as their mommy!

  9. Congratulations! I am excited for you! I don't have any words of wisdom about pregnancy and the band. What did your surgeon's office tell you?
