I have not heard about any correlation between weight loss surgery and birth defects, but to put your mind at rest, you should talk to your surgeon as well as your PCP.

I was sleeved on Oct. 31 2013 and immediately got pregnant. I just had my son July 25th 2014. He was 6.9oz a small baby but his healthy and doing great. He will be 5 weeks tomorrow.

I had my surgery a year ago this past march. I got pregnant right away, 5 months post op. He's perfect and healthy ( 2 months old now) my concern is getting back on track, I lost all the baby weight but am now stuck. Any suggestions?
