I had to laugh at the title of this question...boy, if I got pregnant before the completion of the Weight Loss Surgery, someone in that operating room is gonna hear from Family Court! What a hoot!

Check out this group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OSSG-pregnant There are 365 members there and some of them have gotten pregnant very quickly after their WLS. Also check out http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OSSG-breastfeeding if you want support breastfeeding your new baby after WLS. Good luck and enjoy your pregnancy!
