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!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
