Trying to Conceive After Surgery

Hello! I had my gastric sleeve done on July 15 of this year and I AM NOT planning on waiting the 1-2 years to start trying again. We require fertility intervention to get pregnant (hoping not as much since I've lost 65lbs so far) but we've already started trying. My fertility doctor is one of the best in his field and has cleared me to move forward. I have one son luckily who took a year to conceive but I want more. Are there any newly thinner mommies that are moving forward with TTC dreams? Any luck so far, experiences, things that have helped?? I would love to create some connections here to support my weight loss and baby creation journeys.

it might be dangerous not to wait, your body is still in a malnourished state and loosing weight. It could be dangerous to be pregnant. Definitely go by your doctors adivce

Congratulations on your decision!!! How exciting!!!!

I had a sleeve done a little over a year ago and am currently pregnant (due in July 2016). I didn't need any kind of treatments. I did have to take clomid to get pregnant with our almost 2 year old. While I'm not in the same situation as you, it was much easier for me to get pregnant this time. We tried for months last time and had to take 2 rounds of clomid. My currently pregnancy wasn't exactly unplanned, but we didn't have to try and try and try. I hope that even if you have to have some kind of fertility treatment, that your newfound weight loss does the trick in helping you get pregnant. Best of luck!!!
