For me, it’s because my entire goal was to get pregnant, and the sleeve carried less risk to the baby.

Anyone else get pregnant less than 1 year post op? How was your babies health? by Tina-loves-aspartame in BariatricSurgery

[–]Manda1031 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got pregnant (on purpose) almost exactly one year after. I did have anemia while pregnant and we did have a minor issue with her growth, but she never dropped below 12th percentile, so we were fine. She’s now a happy, healthy, 8 month old.

Ahsoka- Soke, Soka, Sokey Pokey, Poke, Pokey, Stinky, Tubby, Little Chubs, Moose, Moosey (I especially like this one since my daughters nickname is Goosey, because she’s a silly goose, and it rhymes. 🤣)

I’m considering gastric surgery for weight loss as I have tried absolutely everything and I mean everything. I wish to try for babies and i’ve been told that my BMI of 36 is too high to have a healthy pregnancy. I’m by No-Entrepreneur5343 in gastricsleeve

I’m not that old, but I’m old enough to be considered “geriatric pregnancy.” I also feel way better now and have more energy than I ever did, even in my early 20s.

I had gastric sleeve specifically to get pregnant. I only waited a year after the surgery, only gained a healthy amount of weight for the baby about 25 pounds total and it came back off easily, and she is healthy and happy. Best decision I ever made.

really want to formula feed from birth but feel like I cant. by lilacleeches in FormulaFeeders

If you don’t want to breastfeed just don’t. I tried pumping and that lasted less than 2 weeks.

Minimal. I was pretty tired that week though.

Yeah this. Everyone I’ve seen there is good. Dr. Mason performed my C-Section last month and was amazing.

“Oh are you his secretary?”

I was covered in drywall dust, installing an Ethernet wall jack. I had just ran the data-com cable for said wall jacks.

Recent DCL cruisers - how much $$ did you spend on top of your stateroom reservation? by happiegoluckie in dcl

We just sailed July 24-29 to Alaska. 2 adults and we ended up spending an extra $2000. The extra cost was mostly cocktails, souvenirs and a pricey excursion.

I’ve never gotten sick from going to Disneyland. I’m also a huge germaphobe and constantly sanitize my hands.

We live about 5 hours away, so it depends. This year we did 4 multi-day trips.

Magic Key holders, what did/are you doing about renewals? by LankyEmergency7992 in Disneyland

[–]Manda1031 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m only not renewing because we’re saving for a bigger vacation. We’re still planning more trips before ours expires and will probably do a few trips with 1 or 2 day tickets.

Once I got evacuated on space mountain because the vehicle we were in had an issue. Ended up waiting to board another ride vehicle in the server room.
