Congratulations this was my main reason for having the surgery as well, Pre surgery were your cycles abnormal? if so after how many pds did you notice regular menstration with out medication

Congrats !! Wishing u a happy healthy pregnancy :) and of course a healthy baby!!

Congrats!!!!!same thing happened too us..but we had the Lapland .then.....woot woot congrats to the new mommy and daddy

Omg i am not the only one i am 10 months sleeved and i found out yesterday i am 6 weeks pregnant. I am 41 and now i am worried about weight gain and keeping the baby healthy. As well as making sure of keeping my sleeve small.

Congrats!

As for worrying about the sleeve stretching, it's not going to give much at all. The hormones in our body during pregnancy and breastfeeding relax the stomach so our capacity is larger, but that's almost a laughable statement.

Larger, as in, I can now eat a whole sandwich instead of half of one. Or that I can eat about 1 cup of food total, instead of about 6 ounces. This is not going to sabotage your sleeve so do not worry about that.

Keep making the wisest food choices you can and I'm sure you'll do just fine. I have put on a little more weight at nearly 18 weeks than I'd like but I used FET to get pregnant and was on hormones for months. I will say that in my previous pregnancies I had always gained more than 30 pounds by this point, was forced into maternity clothes and looked bloated from head to toe. This time I am four months out, can wear my pre-pregnancy pants (even buttoned up under my belly!) and while I've put on some pounds most of them are in my bust and belly, exactly where they should be.

Best of luck to both of the newly pregnant ladies here!
