    Post op FIRST time pregnancies

    I'm over 2 years out from my VSG and found out I was pregnant by surprise in September last year. I'm now 37 weeks along and haven't had any major complications. Just weird oddities that I attribute to surgery since nothing else makes sense and my friends and family that have had children don't understand some of the things that have happened along in my pregnancy (such as increased sensitivity to sugar even more so than usual). BTW, DO NOT repeat NOT do the glucose tolerance test. My OBGYN insisted I do it and even though I protested, she said "we're gunna give it a try". Well, I puked that drink up DURING my gender reveal ultrasound and needless to say, it ruined the appointment for me. Not to mention freaked out the ultrasound tech. Also keep an eye on your Vitamin absorption as it is already a concern for people not expecting after surgery. It can lead to birth defects especially early in the pregnancy if you aren't absorbing everything you need to.
