Question:
Has anyone ever gotten pregnant after having surgery and what kind of weight gain?

Hi- I had this surgery on August 4 of last year and I have lost 120 pounds and I am very happy at my new weight (actually thrilled!) However, my husband and I are considering having another baby and I am very scared about the weight gain that comes with it! I know that alot was different when I had my first 2 (pre-surgery) and I gained alot of weight with both of them. I am very scared to put alot of weight back on again and then not be able to take it back off after having the baby. Can ANYONE give me any advice about this or maybe someone has gone through this personally?? I could really use some advice on this matter from someone who has actually been there! Thanks so much for your time and help in this matter!    — mrinehart (posted on August 22, 2001)
