Hi , I would absolutely love to exchange e-mail with you.

Congratulations on your precious gift. I do know what you mean about

being cautious. My husband and I are cautiously thrilled too. We're

still a little tender after our miscarriage, but anxious none-the-

less. We want a child so badly and are trying not to get too worked

up about anything until things feel " safe. "

My dr. consulted with my OBGyn (whom I won't see until January 28)

who suggested I up my prenatal vitamin to 2 doses, continue with my

600 mg calcium, and take an extra 1 mg of folic acid each day.

Luckily this OB has seen several WLS mommies through successful,

healthy pregnancies. He also ordered extra blood tests in addition

to the regular pre-natal panel... So far everything came back looking

normal which is wonderful since I was so afraid they would call me

back saying my HCG levels were low. WHEW!!!!

Happy holidays to you and you're in my prayers.
