So naughty me, I want a baby so bad right now. I would love to get prego this summer. I know I should wait but I don't want to. Surgery date was 11/28/12.

Be careful. They tell you to wait for a reason. It's not just your eating' date=' your body is going through a LOT of changes and you want to make sure you are providing a safe environment for the baby.[/quote']

Ur right I know. Just seems like forever.

I know it does. But a year and a half is nothing compared to a safe, healthy baby!

Not that it can't be done, as jerz is proof! Just think it through and make the best decision for your future baby :)

I will thanks

Oh wow that really close to surgery. I hope all is okay. I'm 5 months post op and I'm not preventing it. All my eating and drinking has been great so I should be ok then. Well see Im not sure its easy for me to get pregnant its just a wish.

That's what I said. Before surgery I tried for 13 years to have another baby. I took fertility meds and everything. I was only on birth control pills to make my period stop because sometimes it would last for months. I never thought in a million years I would get pregnant on my own.

That's what everyone says! My son thinks I'm crazy (he's 14)

Went to the doc today and got to hear my babe's heartbeat! I'm on cloud 9 right now! They're switching me to a high risk doctor tho cuz my blood pressure is high, Iron is low and my scar tissue still is sore (had open RNY) plus they don't know jack about RNY so they're treating me like I'm made outta glass lol

That's a good thing right now!

You really should just hold out :-) I have baby fever... Even was ready to not only ignore my bariatric doctor but got nervous when my gyno doctor who is really down to earth urged me to PLEASE wait. She's been seeing a lot of patients who didn't wait and are having lots of complications. So of course I googled it. And it made me nervous.... On a positive note they say that carrying a baby after that 18-24 months can actually be healthier then when your obese :-)

So I cut do the birth control pills bc not effective after the surgery.... then the ring and made me very sensitive down there....so I removed it.... I've been married for 8 yrs and had a miscarriage 4 1/2 yrs ago and we have been trying the whole marriage. It was becoming unbearable. But I decided since this birth control stuff didn't work if it's meant to be it's meant to be. I mean I've gone this long and didn't get prego....now I've found out I'm 6 weeks so excited bc it's time. I've been smaller most of my life so it's not the weight loss it's just time. Thank Jesus. My baby and I will be fine.

Congrats to u! Hoping u have a happy healthy pregnancy. I have baby fever and I have not conceived since my past miscarriage 3 years ago and even took clomid for awhile. I'm scared right now being so soon post op but I'm dying for a little bundle next yr if possible. I'm so happy u are getting a bundle of blessings :)

I forgot all about this thread. It's been almost 3 months and I'm still so excited about my baby. I'm 22 weeks on Wednesday and the baby is a big boy at 1lb 3oz last Monday.
