Hey there ladies,

Is there any one that had their procedure soon after giving birth?

I was on the way to getting my surgery (already met with surgeon and everything, and was just waiting on the call toi schedule my surgery) and found out I was pregnant. I am due in January and I am hoping to get my procedure while I am still out on maternity leave but is a month or two too soon to have the procedure? I don plan on breastfeeding, but not exclusively, so the baby will be used to formula already. I have already sent a message to my surgeon and am still awaiting an answer but I'm getting really impatient. Any advice would be handy, and thanks in advance!

Hmmm good question. I know I had my lapband surgery on dec 17 and had wisdom tooth surgery on dec 30. Yes I had to be completely put out in the hospital for my wisdom teeth. Both surgeons approved this.

Best of luck

I had mine 6 months after delivery. Not sure what the limit is but I would ask your doctor. If u plan to use insurance they may require 6 months diet monitored by a Dr so check into it as soon as possible.

Unfortunatley you will probably get a diffrent answer from each and every doctor.
