Pregnancy after TT
Hello all. I haven't posted here since last year sometime when I was pregnant. Crazy how time flies.
I have a TT scheduled for 07/14. I'm curious to hear from ladies who are pregnant post TT. How far out from the TT are you? Do you have a pronounced baby bump? Is it uncomfortable (more so than normal)? I'm trying to find out how long I should wait after the TT before trying to get pregnant again.

*sigh* I don't mean to be rude ladies... but like I said, I already have a TT scheduled for 07/14. I had my first baby last August.
I had open RNY 4 years ago and lost over 100 lbs. I have a lot of extra skin around my tummy and just want the skin GONE. Everytime I tell someone I'm having a TT, the first question they ask me is, "Well what if you want more children?" As if a TT makes me steril or something.
When I was pregnant, I always felt depressed when I looked in the mirror because the dangling skin from my tummy always took the focus away from my baby bump. I remember just wanting the skin gone so I could appreciate my bump. In a way, one of the biggest reasons I want this done is so I can get pregnant again (weird, I know.)
I'm not having muscle tightening, one because I don't want it done, but two- insurance will only cover the skin removal. I'm not so worried about the skin stretching a little from pregnancy, as long as it doesn't wind up like it is now... which I seriously doubt.

I didn't say what I said to make you feel bad.
I've been fat most of my life. I was huge for both my first and second pregnancy. I'm pregnant now and still have tons of extra skin and a big nasty fat roll.
I just couldn't imagine going through all the TT stuff and then possibly ruin it by having another child. that was all.
if you 'need' to do it, by all means go for it. will your insurance cover a second one?? something to consider.
