Hi my name is . I have been a lurker for a while now. I have GB

on 6-9-03. I have lost 110 in 8 months. 3 weeks ago I was feeling a

little weird, nauseate, fatigued beyond belief and just not feeling

well at all. I thought maybe I could be preganant, but I thought

couldnt be. My hubby and I have been trying 8 long years to have a

child. We even did IVf twice. The first attempt was unsuccessful

and the second resulted in twins that we lost at 24 weeks due to

preeclampsia nd gestational diabetes. Although my doctors never said

anything even the specialist but I know weight was definitley a

contributuing factor in the loss. It was the worst exepericne of my

life. It was different from a miscarriage for me becasue we actually

had a baby to hold look and name to only have afuneral. That was in

10- 02. Well fast forward 8 months to june 03. I decided before

another IVF I would do wls first. All went very well wiht the

surgery. Well geting bacl to before. I decided for the heck of it I

would take a pg test and it came back positive. I was in shock after

8 long years and two IVf's. It happened naturally, it wasnt supposed

to. My doctors said we would never conceive naturally and I maean

never. Not only do I have pcos but my hubby has an extremely low

count and so it was to never happen. Well I guess God had other

plans, because I am now pregant. I have my first US tomorrow. i am

thrilled beyond belief. I do have lots of anxiety. I hope that this

group will be able to offer me soime guidance and support. I really

have no idea how this will effect me so soon after suregery. Any

advice is appreciated. Please let me know what vitamins you take,

foods to eat etc. I would guess I am about 2 months pg now. Thanks

for your support and I look forward to particiapting in this group.
