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 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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
