Pregnant before surgery but it was not found

I made it! I had my DS on Sept. 29, 2008 and had my baby on June 2, 2009. He is perfectly healthy. The doctors had to take him a little earlier because I have already had two myomectomies. I was dialated and they did not want me to go into labor. My little baby weighed 5 pounds and 14 ounces.We spent three days in  the hospital and both came home. He did not have any problems. He lost weight in the hospital and I had to supplement with formula. My thyroid was low when it was checked right before he was born. My other vitamin levels looked good. Has anyone not had their breast-milk come in because of the DS? I know my thyroid could be the cause of my poor milk supply. Any thoughts or suggestions about breastfeeding? Please if you find anyone who gets pregnant before or right after their surgery, please tell them they can still have a healthy pregnancy. They might have to work with a Maternal Fetal Medicine Doctor but a healthy pregnancy is still possible!

That's wonderful news! Congrats on your healthy baby boy!!

What a miracle!!!! I'm so happy he's healthy. sorry I can't help you on the BF thing. My milk never came in on either of my babies. I'm just so happy for you!

congrats!

Congratulations on a healthy little man and for you....while I have no help on BF I hope all continues to go well with your new little gift...

Its funny they never knew before your DS....I remember VERY vividly that before they wheeled me into surgery for my RNY they made me do another preg pee test...my dad was in the room with me....I laughed as I was VERY single at the time and said no worries dad....so they were very precautious about being PG before surgery.....

What did you name your little man and do you have pics?

Congrats again!

Wow! Congrats to you. I look forward to seeing pics of your baby!
