C/Section and LapBand

How long after a c/section can one have the lapband surgery? I am thinking that I will start the process for the lapband approx. 4 weeks after my c/section and that would include the 6 months of dieting required by my insurance. That would probably (correct me if this isn't right) put me at an approximate surgery 8 months post c/section if all goes smoothly w/ insurance approval. Will doctor's perform a lapband that soon after another surgery such as a c/section?? I realize all doctors are different but what has your experience been?

Thanks!

Well I had a c-section on Oct 19th 2009 and I am having my lap band on May 25th. So it would be only 7 motnhs after my c-section. Hope this helps!!
