February 24 th here hopefully...pending insurance approval of course.....it has been submitted...just anxiously awaiting the news

Hello all...I am still preop but just have a couple concerns still. My husband and I have two little girls but we still want one to two more children if that's what the good Lord allows. I am scheduled for surgery Feb 24 pending insurance approval.....I know they say wait 1 year to 1.5 years before etc which I am fine with but my main concern is breastfeeding....it is very important to me and I want to be able to do so...I know there's are a few on here that have had children post sleeve but I was wondering if any of you were able to successfully nurse without issue? Any advice, stories or tips would be much appreciated. Thank you

hello...I have told some just because I'm so excited to get this process going. Mostly close friends, coworkers and family members. I am also ashamed of this as I feel like I am failing for all the unsuccessful attempts at weight loss..I also have major fears of dying and leaving my one year old daughter...I don't know why it hits me so hard...I guess the only thing I'm worried about having told people that I'm thinking of getting the surgery is if it doesnt work and yet again I have failed..my stepmom already tells me I'm stupid for considering the surgery.....I do know though, that once I get my surgery date scheduled, the only people who will know is my husband and parents. Good luck to you in your journey!!!
