From what I have researched & what I was told when my gallbladder was removed by the time you wake from anesthesia the majority has left your system, it's not something that lingers. Once you are awake enough to hold the baby you can nurse, & there are also plenty of pain medications that are 100% safe to nurse on, percocet for one, so that's not really my concern (as per LLL & Kellymom.com) it's more sustaining my supply, by 12 months he wont be nursing full time like he is now.

Keep me posted! I'd love to know!

I have recently decided on VSG, I am going to being my 90 day surgical prep as soon as my family moves home to Arizona in January. I am (almost) exclusively breastfeeding my 8 month old son & I am wondering if any other mothers have been in this situation? Could you still feed after surgery? Did you notice that it impacted your supply? I am very worried that my surgeons will pressure me to stop which neither my son, nor I, are ready for but I also don't think breastfeeding should be a reason to not have surgery.
