For me much of the confusion is that I have never heard of the term " fallen

pregnant " . Is this a common term in your area? Something regional? Or

perhaps my 30+ years since pregnant are showing. I love new terms and would

like to know more about this. I have heard of fallen women, fallen arches,

fallen cakes, and fallen dreams. But fallen pregnant is new to me. I

rather like the way it sounds.

Sounds like is a very loved and appreciated child. How wonderful for

all of you.

Dear ,

I have heard the idiom, 'to fall pregnant', meaning

'to end up pregnant'. It doesn't mean 'to get

pregnant'. It is colloquial, maybe related to the idea

of a fallen women or state. It's bad enough being a

woman, and then you add pregnancy to it and you end up

'falling pregnant'... There is a problem with the

idiom, in that it is hard to distinguish between women

who fall when pregnant and women who fall to get

pregnant....

Incidentally, , your point is well taken that just

because one sees a shrink does not mean that one is

crazy. One is crazy to see a shrink, however, just

because some skinny, undernourished NIH potentate with

a good start on a god complex thinks one should.

What is the morality of forcing sick fat people to

waste their time at psychologists and dieticians in

order to cover one's ass from nuisance malpractice

suits arising from patients not following reasonable

physician orders? What, too, is the morality of

allowing the physician to indulge in behaviors related

to a god complex as Emma 's behavior loosely

indicates?

lcp

PS. It occurs to me that wanting to get the surgery

ASAP is a sign of a healthy person. It is a bit

strange the notion that a crazed morbidly obese person

desires a surgery that will interfere with their

ability to overeat. What we have here is a situation

where people are doing everything they can to make

themselves well and the medical profession is doing

more than it ought to make it tough on them. That's

what peeves me about this entire business. We fatsos

are being discriminated against while endeavoring to

do the right, healthy thing.

What should we call this new surgical syndrome?

's Brainless Chorea? The CYFA Syndrome?

Tridumbnial Neuralgia? NIHrhea? Idiopathic Malpractice

Phobia?

Are there any fat people in Heaven? Not if the NIH has

a say in it!

Tracey,

That was one of my major concerns when I considered whether or not to proceed with BPD/DS - I am having the surgery on 11 November 2001, by Dr Ritchie in Sydney Australia. Dr Ritchie assured me that he had had patients who had fallen pregnant and in fact my memory is coming back if you email me privately with your address I can send you a copy of a video (think it is A Current Affair) where one of the people interviewed is pregnant. Dr Ritchie did say that he advised against falling pregnant until 2 years after the surgery.

I believe the term " fall pregnant " is a Briticism for our american

phrase " get pregnant. "

Congratulations Tammy!

I do not know about a support group for your situation. Hopefully someone else

can help there.

Pregnancy

I have been a reader for some time but never a poster. I feel now is

the time. I have just found out I am 2 months pregnant. I will be

40 the 30th of this month, 1st pregnancy, and scared as hell. Mainly

about the pregnancy and birthing, and of course the weight gain. I

had a gastric bypass in 1996. I DO NOT want to be FAT again. I have

had 2 stoma closures because of an ulcer in the past. That is pretty

much it. What I would like to know is if there is a group for

graduates that are or have been pregnant. Any help or info shared

would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tammy in AZ

least two years they would like to have you wait.Your young and have

a long life.My friend she had surgery years ago and after she had

children.Her second son gradautaed last years and look and she does

great.So yes You'll be able to have children.Just make sure to wait

two years.and take care of your self and Vitiamins.And you'll be

fine.I haven't taking anything for Birth control four nine years but

once I want to have the surgery they made sure one thing I was put

on something so I don't get PG.They state that after the weight lose

your body easier to become Pregant.So God Bless and hang in there
