It's quite difficult to get approved furthermore during pregnancy, both the caloric and nutritional obligations of the mother soar. Failure to boost one's intake both of calories and certain Vitamins, especially vitamins for example folic acid, can outcome in poor development and diverse defects in the fetus, encompassing difficulties with the brain and spinal cord.

Pregnancy before Lap Band Surgery not recommended and after 18 months it could be possible.

I strongly recommend you confer with your surgeon and your obstetrician.

Thanks

i guess i should of worded my question differently. i wanted to know what happens if you already have your insurance approval (but have not has surgery yet) but found out you were pregnant...what happens to your insurance approval? can it be pushed off and for how long? or do you have start from scratch with the 6 months and all the testing?

delray that would depend on your insurance company.
