How long after WLS surgery did everyone fall?
I just googled "fall pregnant" and a bunch of Australian sites came up -- looks like it means "got pregnant."
I got pregnant 6 months out. It was a big surprise, but we are thrilled -- now he's 7 weeks old!
My post-WLS pregnancy was basically the same as the first -- gestational diabetes both times, gained 20 pounds (9 kg) with pre-op baby and 25 (11) with post-op. Baby #1 weighed 6 pounds, 15 ounces (roughly 3.15 kg) and was 18 1/2 inches (47 cm) long. Baby #2 was 7 pounds, 14 ounces (roughly 3.57 kg) and was 19 1/2 (49.5) inches long.

LMAO!! OMG it is too funny how we didn't know what she was talking about! Now that you've explained it, it makes perfect sense.
I fell pregnant 2 years after RNY. I think i'm doing ok so far but i'm only 2 months pregnant so I'm keeping my fingers crossed! :D
I have a sweet friend that is moving to Perth next month, I'll have to tell her that one.
I fell at 9 months and then again at 25 months post op. My second post op baby is 6 months and I am not pregnant yet.
Both babies are healthy and thriving. My second post op pregnancy was rougher than the first, depleted vitamin and mineral stores contributed to some issues.

I got pregnant with my first post op baby at 8 months out. My second 3 years later. Both are healthy, were/are solely breastfed and I have not had any issues with pregnancy or nursing.
I did however have a hernia repair/TT and lost tons of blood so I had blood transfusion and iron infusion in between babies.
Good luck falling!!
(Now I have Waltzing Matilda going through my head)
