hello, I'm Shawn. I'm new to the site. I had my takedown surgery July of 2015 and have been doing wonderfully ever since! I'm currently pregnant and really just looking for friends going through this or who have been through it.

Hi! I'm 6 months pregnant due august 16th. How far along are you?
Hi! 2 months!
Nice, how long did it take u to get pregnant? Have u seen an ob?
I had my first apt on Tuesday. I was actually really surprised it took nothing for me to get pregnant. We weren't really trying. For some reason I really didn't think I could have kids and if I did I thought it would be really hard.
How has your pregnancy been? Any complications? Do they say it's high risk?
Lol that's what I thought too, I actually didn't get pregnant after a year and a half so I was like omg I'm pregnant now out of nowhere! But my pregnancy has been good just normal pregnancy aches and pains my lower back had really been bothering me, but other than that I think my jpouch had improved more than anything, before I became pregnant I actually had to be careful with what I ate because it will cause me to have some blood in my stool but haven't had that issue since I've been pregnant, I can eat anything now! Hopefully it stays that way lol and at first they said high risk but now they say everything is good and I talked to my girlfriend and he said everything should b treated as a normal pregnancy. But before I had jpouch I had my daughter which is now 7 years old she was a c-section and my ob said I can try normal delivery but debating since I have jpouch.
