Please be cautious of your post op increase in fertility!!!

I wanted to take a minute to get the word out AGAIN to people that post-op your fertility goes WAY UP. I received the shocking news this week that at age 40 and on the pill without any missed pills what-so-ever, and with a husband who had a vasectomy a few months back.. I am pregnant. This was not welcome news for me or my husband. I had vertical banded gastroplasty about a year ago and have lost 130 pounds. With my surgery, it wasn't an issue of the birth control pill not be absorbed normally.. it was apparently just incredible fertility that even the pill couldn't overcome. PLEASE.. if babies aren't on your wish list.. be EXTREMELY cautious. I won't be going near my hubby until his vasectomy is redone and I have a tubal ligation. Apparently we need the belt and suspenders both!
