Only 7 wks post op & pregnant.

I am so freaked out right now...I'm only 7 weeks post op and just found out I'm pregnant. I emailed my dr but haven't heard back. I was not planning this at all and we think I may have gotten preggers just before the surgery. I know my dr had me sign something about waiting 18 months...truth is we were done having kids and I never thought this would happen. I just don't know what to do. Any sleeves out there pregnant so soon after surgery? Any input?

You will be fine!! Shame on Amazon for their comment. God Bless you!! Just take care of yourself and everything else will follow.

Amazon 13... Wow what a disgusting thing to say, you should be absolutely ashamed of yourself! Good luck to you and this precious gift :)

You will do awesome!! Congrats to you. My neighbor had surgery several years ago and had twins two years later. They are 3 now and he s doing great.

Good luck and keep us posted!! You are not the only one who will face this so please share your experience.....and I'm jealous!! Last thing I wanted to do after my surgery was have sex!!!

How are you doing with pregnancy?

Well I am now 11 weeks pregnant and baby and I are both doing fine. I have lost a few pounds but only about 6 which is good. Eating is a struggle to get all my protein in and try to eat veggies and fruits that baby needs. I had my first ultrasound to make sure baby is fine and thank god baby is good. We will be monitored closely but just as a precaution. Morning sickness was rough at first but is calming down. I go in next week to see both the doc and will have more to report then. :) thank you to everyone with your kind words and thoughts!

Praise our Almighty Lord! All things are possible through Jesus! Congrats on your pregnancy, I am so happy your baby and you are doing great! God is soooo good! ;-)

I dont know how you feel about this but I would abort if it happened to me.

Really?? Have you read this thread??? She has gone to her doctor and will be ok most likely!

I didnt get a chance to read the entire thing because I am mobile right now, after the fact I did see that. Its ok through, was just stating what I would do.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to know what's going on before giving advice or opinion?

Just saying...

It wasnt advice, just my thoughts on what I would do as a fellow patient of childbearing age. Im still learning how to use the VST app, but I refuse to be shot down for offering my thoughts on the subject. Thats what a forum is for. Seems to mw that perhaps you dont like the choice, which is also fine. I would never push that on someone who wasnt considering that but there is not one single thing wrong with me stating what I would do other than the fact that I didnt realize this wasnt a new thread, which I already acknowledged previously.

I like how you handled yourself. I get it. She asked and you gave your opinion. I didn't think it was rude. She's happily pregnant and healthy. It's all good.

Can I have it?!
