Hi everyone-new to the group

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone. My name is . I had RNY 3-5-03, I started out

at 252lbs and now at a wonderful 132lbs. I had a check up about a

month ago and my Dr said he was happy with my progress and doesnt

want me to lose anymore weight. He also discovered that I have a

Hiatal Hernia. I had scheduled the hernia repair and tummy tuck for

January 16th. HOWEVER...I missed my cycle this month and decided to

take a home test. This test came back positive and so did the next 3

test I did. I think I am still in shock. My husband and I have been

trying for about 7 years with no luck, so you can see where this may

be a little shocking!! I am thrilled and so is my husband. I do

have some concerns about nutrition, of course, but more so about the

hernia. Has anyone or know anyone who is pregnant with a hernia and

how are they doing? Any advise or coments will be greatly

appreciated.

Since I have a hiatal hernia and just found out I am pregnant, how will the

pregnancy be effected by the hernia or the hernia be effected by the pregnancy?

Thank you

Congratulations on your pregnancy , this is wonderful. I currently

have a big hernia near my pouch and also one in the groin that I had schedule to

had surgery after the new year but now I cannot either. The docs do not think

this is going to be a problem, that the baby gradually pushes everything out

of the way and it should be okay. Everyone is different though so just have the

doc keep an eye out for it. You will be fine I am sure. I am excited for you,

I was infertile for years too for no reason and now have 3 kids nad 1 on the

way

,

There is at least one other woman in the group who has a hernia and

is pregnant and she is doing great! She will probably answer more of

your questions than I ever could!!

Congrats on your pregnancy, and just try to eat healthy! Everything

will work out!
