Surgery scheduled for 12/12/2007...hope I'm not pregnant

Hi everyone, My lap band surgery is scheduled for 12/12. I have had no indications to believe I am pregnant, other than hubby and I have been having ALOT of sex within the past 4 days. I had my period last month and it's not sue yet for December, but now I curious to know what would happen if it turns up that I am prgnant and my surgery is next week? I wouldn't know I was pregnant until after my surgery. Would it be a problem?

I would think your MD should know because of all the different meds they use for surgery and pain management????At this early stage of pregnancy all there little organs are developing

My surgery is scheduled for the 17th, so I just had my pre-admission testing done on Tuesday. I had to give a urine sample that day for a pregnancy test, and I was given a specimen cup to collect my first morning's urine on the day of surgery to be tested again for pregnancy. I mean, if you got pregnant the day before it wouldn't show up, but the chances of ovulating the day before sugery etc etc is probably pretty slim. Just make sure you use condoms, etc in the meantime. Good luck with you surgery!
