Has Anyone With Pcos Gotten Pregnant After Lapband?

Has anyone with PCOS gotten pregnant after losing weight? I have PCOS and one of the reasons I'm getting banded is because down the road I'd like to have children and I know PCOS may lead to infertility.

I got pregnant 2yrs after being banded, we had been trying for 10 yrs with no luck. Not being able to get pregnant caused a problem in our relationship and we broke up. Since I still wanted a baby I decided to try IFV with donor sperm, I got pregnant with the first round and I had my blessing: Mrs. Kennedy & she is the light of my life. So dont give up the fight, theres a light at the end of that tunnel. :D

I actually got pregnant twice after having the lapband and having PCOS. Unfortunately both ended in MC because of my age and the quality of my egg. I am happy to say after having an egg donor that I am now 7 weeks pregnant. I was pregnant with twins but unfortunately we lost one last week so I am home on rest. But the other baby seems to be doing well. Saying our prayers and hoping for a great Christmas to share the news with the family.
