Re: Newbie to Group Question

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

Some people in this group get pregnant by accident before their first-year

gastric bypass anniversary. From what I have read, they all seem to deliver

healthy babies. Some lose weight throughout their pregnancies. Some do not

lose weight throughout their pregnancies.

We are advised not to get pregnant before our first year of surgery. They

say that the rapid weight loss can hurt the fetus. However, I have not read

any postings like that here. Most people are doing well that got pregnant

too soon.

I waited until my one-year anniversary to try to conceive. My surgeon wanted

me to wait longer, but I begged him so he said, " okay. " It took us six or

seven months to conceive so I am glad I did not wait any longer.

Good luck.
