Usually they request that you don't for two reasons, nutrition concerns, and meeting and maintaining goal. I am pregnant 12 weeks and almost 9 months out. I miss my energy and feeling sexy. But so far so good. As much as I'd prefer to have waited, it happens don't stress my obgyn knew I had this surgery and is taking precautions and helping me. He was very knowledgeable and experienced with these pregnancies. So just make sure whatever obgyn had those qualifications to be able to handle your case and make sure your care is top notch. Good luck. And is a blessing ;) PS this is the first pregnancy I've had without fertility treatments!

Thank you so much for your reply.. Congrats on your pregnancy!! it is a blessing :) I'm going to see my gyn sometime next week for sure... I got sleeved on 2/4 I'm honestly sooooooo scared... I have a 6yr daughter that begs me everyday for a sister :) it was so hard to have her she is my miracle baby... Haven't been prego since!! I have a whole in one of my Fallopian tubes & it makes it very difficult for me to carry a baby.... So like I said before I'm super happy but scared becuz it's so soon after my surgery... I'm 18lbs away from my goal but at this moment in life who cares!!! :) I leave it in gods hands he knows best....

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
