I am 7 month post op, and just found out I’m pregnant



Recommended Posts

Well, I’m freaking out! I am 7 months post op, I’ve lost 57lbs so far, and I just found out I’m 5 weeks pregnant!!! I don’t know what this means for my weight loss, what this means for the baby. I’m just freaking out!!! Isn’t this way too soon?

Deep breaths it is soon BUT you need to tell your DRS asap... and they need to get you on the right diet and Vitamin plan ASAP. I have seen some people have healthy pregnancies this soon out but they had DRs who were super involved early on. Its is possible to have a healthy pregnancy but there are risks... But congrats to you and your baby just talk to an OBGYN and bariatric teams ASAP.

Ok as a male i sure am glad me and my dog got neutered - I have seen this type of post to many times - This correlation between WLS and getting pregnant is scary

I have no advise for you - except call doctors! but do have congratulations on the new little one! Guess it is a bonus to WLS. Enjoy the journey and new baby! 🍼

Congrats! And call your surgeon immediately. Get them to give you a referral to an OB/Gyn. Go see your bari nutritionist.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
