I HAVENT BEEN BANDED YET ...iM WAITING NOW FOR A DATE NOW . I ALSO HAVE PCOS. I DID CONCEIVE A CHILD 6 YEARS AGO , MY ONLY ONE WITH METIFORIM . I AM NOW THE MOST WEIGHT I HAVE EVER BEEN AND WOULD LOVE TO GET PREGNANT . HOWEVER I FEEL THAT TAKING THE WEIGHT OFF IS WHAT I NEED MOST OF ALL. THE PROBLEM IS IM NOW GOING TO BE 41 IN MARCH AND FEEL THAT I WOULD NEED TO GET PREGNANT IN ATLEAST 6 MONTHS AFTER THE LAP BAND . I COULDNT WAIT ANY LONGER THEN THAT ....IS THIS POSSIBLE OR SHOULD I WAIT TO BE BANDED

Im preparing to have the lap band done ..hopefully within the month . The only problem is that my husband wants another child and Im 40 years old . Does anyone know how long you have to wait before having a pregnancy? I really didnt want to wait more then 6 months because of my age ..Im just not sure if that safe or not ?
