pregnant - 4 months post op

soooo..... needless to say I'm freaking out!!! just found out I'm pregnant and will be calling both my doctor to set up an appointment to confirm and my surgeon for information, but yikes! I've heard pregnancy is quite common after weight loss surgery, but I'm concerned about how soon after the surgery this is....has anyone been through this or have any information to share???

Hey Anybody Pregnant or Know Anyone Pregnant 2 To 3 months post op?

just wondering what your surgeon thought of it? Im scared cause Im late on my period and Im only 6 months out from surgery. a friend of mine got pregnant after only 4 months and her surgeon was really mad. I have the same surgeon lol...

Hi ladies!

I just got sleeved this week!

This was the biggest reason I wanted to get sleeved! I want a baby! No kids as of yet! Been struggling with infertility for years!

Congrats on all the new babies coming along!

Can't wait to like you ladies!!

I had read somwhere I think on this site about a woman who got pregnant. Her gyno told her to eat an extra 300 calories a day--like a big mack or cheeseburger. And her baby was a normal weight. Thats what Im gonna do! LOL I want the baby to be a nice comfortable weight.

I'm six weeks post-op and pregnant. LOL

Hey Jacquelynn how is everything going with the pregnancy ? Ill b 6 months post op in a couple of weeks so I was just wondering if UR having any complications . I plan on getting pregnant but idk what's "too soon"

Hi ladies' date=' I had my sleeve aug 2012, I'm 35 weeks pregnant and have only gained 7 pounds. Dr told me today that my baby weighs only 4.2 pounds and should be around 5.5 pounds by now. Going to have another ultrasound next Tuesday and if baby isn't gaining anymore weight they will schedule my csection. Any ideas on how I can gain weight fast? I'm trying to eat more Protein and ensure drinks. I want a healthy baby. :( thanks for any ideas.[/quote']

I'm 5 mos preg with twins and haven't gained a single lb. don't stress out you are 35 weeks already and I think safer than most. My friends babies are usually born at 2-3 lbs I know you and your baby will be fine.
