Baby?

Has anyone got pregnant since their surgery and did you get your weight back off afterwards? I am 30 and never had kids and I am thinking about it now. I am 6 months out , down 97 pounds , I still have time to think about it but I do have many questions???? Please give me some input.

Lorie PLEASE check with your surgeon on this subject...the answers you get will vary and YOU should really follow YOUR surgeon's advise. Also, you can check in with the girls on the Pregnancy board. Good Luck and Well Wishes Tanya 329/233/healthy & happy

Lorie; Definitely a conversation you need to have with your surgeon. Most like you to wait until you're at least 2 years post-op. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 169 / 137

Check out the profile for Kitty Kat in Richmond, VA. She's about 3 years or so post-op and had a baby a year ago. Also, my sister, 13 years post-op, accidentally got pregnant 5 months post-op and, unfortunately, her husband was transferred by the Navy to Portugal. Needless to say, she had to become her own advocate for specialized care and learned A LOT on her own about vitamin and mineral suppliments. Of course, this was also before much of the follow-up that now takes place with post-ops. Good luck! Tammy
