Band removal while pregnant???

Goodluck in June lo2us :biggrin1: nothing like the pitter patter of tiny feet LOL

Hi I haven't been on in while and the reason is because i'm 6 1/2 months pregnant, I was banded last April 2006 and got pregnant in October 2006 I wasn't trying to but it happen. Well once I found out I was pregnant my band was released of all fluid and is still safely inside me with no problems, I was told u have to have all the fluids taken out so your baby can get enough nutrients while being pregnant, and after I have the baby I still have to wait a little while longer to be pumped back up with fluids if I plan on breast feeding so the baby is still getting all the nutirents she needs. Well I know u already saw everybody elses comments but I hope mines helps u out a little also, goodluck and go for it ! :clap2:

My suggestion would be to get a second and third opinion. Be sure. It is one thing to make decisions about your own life and another alltogether to risk the both of you. It can never hurt to have too much information. Good luck with everything! God Bless.

Have you seen your OB yet? There are risks associated with general anesthesia and the fetus. You should consult your OB and see what they think. You may need to go see a maternal-fetal specialist, to see about risks concerneing surgery at this time and risks of the antibiotics you were on. I know this isn't many answers, but it is questions to ask your OB. Please give serious thought to what is said.
