8 Months Post Op, 5 Weeks Pregnant - Weight Gain & Lost

So I just found out I am 5 weeks pregnant, I'm currently 8 months post op and in total has lost 81lbs....oh yeah just gained back back a few in the last few weeks alone.

Not sure what the average weight gain is & if the weight was lost quickly after?

If anyone has had their baby, can you tell me if the weightloss continued on after the baby was born......

My friend had surgery over two years ago, she had a baby in September, she gained 40 lbs. and lost 45 lbs. after giving birth.

I'm 24 weeks pregnant and I've gained 9 lbs so far, looking to gain another 10 before I'm done. The plan is to get back to my goal weight ASAP after the baby comes.

I am 9 months post op, 16 weeks pregnant and I haven't gained yet. Which the dr are concerned with. I heard though after the baby your restrictions go back to normal... I am on a facebook group that a few girls have had children and they easily lose the weight after... but that is with work.

I gained 6 of the 9 lbs in week 20 to 24 lol you will put on some weight I'm almost 2 years out from having my sleeve and was at goal when I got pregnant.

I got pregnant very soon after my surgery. I am 29 weeks today and have lost 30lbs and have not gained a thing. At first i was losing about 5lbs a month or more. Now i am losing about a lb or 2.

I got pregnant 10 months post-op. I was down 100 and about 15lbs from goal. I really didn't gain much while pregnant (7lbs total). I was 152-ish when I got pregnant (size 10). This morning (2.5 weeks after baby) I was 134.2. I'm perfectly happy with my loss and just need to tone up. I'm 4'11 so my weight puts me somewhere between a size 4-6 depending on brand. I'm wearing size 6 non stretch denim shorts today. I'm also breastfeeding baby, too and that helps with weight loss- but also makes you ravenously hungry.
