7 months out and pregnant!

Anyone have any useful advice in this situation? I've spoken with the nurse at my surgeon's office, and she said, "I can go ahead and tell you he will recommend an abortion." I knew that would probably be the recommendation, but after doing reading this weekend, it seems as though quite a few women have gone ahead with pregnancies and been ok. Julie

Julie, Here is a link to the Post-Op Pregnancy board. I am sure you can find some helpful advice and support there. http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/amosforums/postop_pregnancy/ Good Luck! Tonya

Julie, Look at this, I posted it earlier today... Good Luck! Denise ---------------- From: SpotlightHealth@s...

Thanks, Denise! I will check that out if I have the chance. My daughter is supposed to have a soccer game at 6:00, but that might be rained out. Julie
