Pregnant During Surgery!!

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I'm pretty new here and have only posted once. I found out last

Saturday that I was pg and saw my OB yesterday. He did a pelvic

exam and said I feel like I'm about 8 weeks, which makes me pg

before surgery. He said that he thinks I conceived the day before

surgery. This is kinda scarey to me. Is it safe to go through all

that on such a little being? He also said that I am going to be

treated as a fairly normal pg because having the surgery doesn't

make me high risk. What I don't understand is that I am 8 weeks pg

and 6 weeks out of surgery. (Well, that's the guess I'm having a

dating scan on the 29th to determine for sure). Isn't it a higher

risk when you are fresh off the table? I love my OB and trust him,

I know that he's had gastric bypass OB patients before because he

works in the same complex as some surgical associates who perform

the procedure and he knew a lot about what I had done, but I just

thought that he would be more concerned. Anyway, what do y'all

think?

Should I just be normal?
