  1. I have been banded about a week now, and everything has been so smooth and easy. I've lost 5 lbs. in 5 days! I haven't thrown up at all. I do burp a lot. Is that normal? I spoke with someone a few days ago who's been banded for about 2 years, and she got pregnant a few months after the banding procedure. Unfortunately, she miscarried. She now says that she feels like the banding had something to do with her unsuccessful pregnancy, since she had two kids and never had a problem before. Should I be concerned? One reasons I chose to do the lapband was to get healthy before having more children and because it allows you to still get pregnant safely. Is it safe. Should I be taking more vitamins. How long should I wait post surgery to get pregnant?
  2. Hi, I'm very new at this, going for my first appointment tue. and surgery scheduled for aug. 17. Has anyone ever heard of any really negative outcomes from banding? Also, what is mid-banding as opposed to lap-banding??? I read where someone's lap band was unsuccessful, so they had to go back for a second surgery, which was a midbanding?
