Who has gotten pregnant shortly after gastric sleeve surgery...and did you have any complications

I got a lot of warnings that I would be more fertile AND had to go off the pill for 2 months. I've read you aren't supposed to get pregnant for a year. I would call your doctor immediately.

Good luck, whatever you do.

My surgeon recommends not getting pregnant for at least 18 months, and if you do, to see a high risk pregnancy specialist for an OB. Good luck with whatever you do.

I know this post is older but I got pregnant 7 months after I had my surgery. As I type right now, I am literally in my second trimester (I conceived in November 2018) Everything is going great so far. I only gained 6 pounds in 4 months, my goal is to stay under 15 lbs total. I still drink Protein Shakes and do my best to eat good wholesome choices. I go to town on roasted caulifower with curry powder. I think my baby loves her grilled veggies. I was 20 lbs from my goal weight and super active at the time I conceived too so I still do HIIT training Tuesday /Thursdays, Pilates 2x a week Wednesdays/Sundays, and atleast 1 spin class a week. I am so afraid of losing control and gaining it all back but so far so good. If you are pregnant congratulations...Remember to drink a boat load of fresh Water, and stay active. You have a bigger reason to stay healthy as possible and enjoy life with your child. Make it happen!!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
