I had one child in '98 about a year off the Depo shot. Since then I've had hormone issues and what seems to be a never ending period that can last anywhere from 3 days up to 8 months at one time. It's the worst because my husband and I always wanted another after our first.

Some say they got pregnant surprisingly, unexpectedly and immediately after surgery...any good stories to share?? I'd like some glimmer of hope...

Thanks in advance!!

I had infertility issues for over 11 years of being married , I have several infertility treatments , due to hormonal imbalances and pcos , I was told it would be hard for me to get pregnant . I went in for surgery on 1/18/12 hoping this would be my last option. I got pregnant 7 months later , after losing 75+ pound . Sadly I miscarried at 9wks , but I had not given up hope , a month later I was pregnant again which I have now given birth to 4 months ago. I am glad to say that I'm truly blessed after 11 years of trying.

I have one child too that is now 15, I am wondering how this will all work out for me too. I have endometriosis, adenomyosis, and pcos so I understand your pain with the never ending bleeding and pain. My husband and I tried prior to me having my sleeve 10/24/12, and now we are in transition in trying to conceive. The doctors feel that it will be easier because of the weight loss, considering I’ve had a child before, but I am still very nervous about having a successful pregnancy. The doctor took about 8 tubes of blood when i went in for my pre-pregnancy appointment; I'm just hoping that none of hormones levels are off so much that would keep us from getting our green light in January.

When do you plan on trying for another child?

I think everything should be fine , My pregnancy was great !! I didn't have any problems at all , but I did get a little off track in eating what I wanted I did gain 30lbs , but I felt that I was always hungry and snacking , so now I have this habit to kick lol but I slowly losing again .

I wanted to wait at least one year , but if it happens again I'm okay with it .

Thanks for the reassurance

after 11.5yrs of trying & having pcos, i finally conceived in june 2013. i was sleeved dec 20, 2011. i lost 143lbs & was weighing 130lbs when i conceived.

My dr said for me to get to 200 lbs by 12months post op...so that I can be at a healthier weight...Im not using birth control..

so if it happens sooner..Im okay with it...I will 39 in several months...so I dont have time on my side...Ive been struggling with infertility for more than 10 years,,,I have never been pregnant in my life...so I am anxious to concieve one day soon!

Sending you all baby dust!

I hope to be able to have the patience to wait at least 1 year but I might start trying after 8 months or so. I just want to know if its possible and if I can, I will have it and then continue with my losing goals. I need to get that out the way soon...I'm getting up there in age and don't wanna push my luck or wait until I reach my goal and then retract all my hard work. Good luck to you...

I have a 14yr old but could never get pregnant after him. I've tried fertility meds & 2 rounds of Ivf with no success. I had RNY on 1/28/13 and had my son 10/28/13. I got pregnant 17 days post op!

Wow, I can't wait to have that success story to tell!!

My niece had bypass in april this year and had pcos. After 15 years of not getting pregnant she is now about 8 weeks pregnant! I found out a day before her that I'm pregnant too at 6 months post-op from the sleeve. I'm 42 and had been trying since my last daughter was born in 2011.
