Skin removal then pregnancy



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had skin removal surgery and then got pregnant afterwards? How did it affect your body? I need skin removal surgery and I haven’t decided if I want another child yet. I don’t want to wait to have the surgery because I don’t know if I’ll ever decide to have another child. But, I also am afraid that if I have the surgery then get pregnant it would be a total waste of money for the surgery.

I would think it would stretch everything out again (or at least your lower torso) if you got pregnant afterward. Or at least stretch it out somewhat. If you were sure you were going to try to get pregnant, I'd probably wait. But if you aren't sure...hmmmm....that's a dilemma. Maybe you could do a consult with a plastic surgeon and ask their opinion?

I had a full Tummy Tuck after surgery. Then 5 years later had my first kid. My body bounced back so quickly that everyone I saw couldn’t believe I had just had a baby. No issues. Then had a second kid 3 years later. Exact same result. Not at all a waste in my opinion.

      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! 😞
