lol @ the 3 week hangover...lmao! I understand, after trying for so long u just think its anything but that..I know!

I had one child in '98 about a year off the Depo shot. Since then I've had hormone issues and what seems to be a never ending period that can last anywhere from 3 days up to 8 months at one time. It's the worst because my husband and I always wanted another after our first. Some say they got pregnant surprisingly, unexpectedly and immediately after surgery...any good stories to share?? I'd like some glimmer of hope... Thanks in advance!!

It's recommended that you wait at least 12-18 months but for those trying like myself, if it happens, it happens and we are just so happy. I've done my research online and with ppl I know and it is very likely to have a healthy baby with no complications within and before that time recommended. Your body is still healing and you're still getting use to your new life and eating habits and the baby will change all that and put u in a place that may make things difficult but it's based on you and your commitment to whipping your self back into shape. Plus many say they loss more than half if not all of their pregnancy weight within 2 weeks after delivery....whew, thank goodness!! My closest friend had the surgery and was pregnant after 4 months and my god baby is healthy and beautiful!! She never even looked pregnant!

I am now 1 of 8 women that I have met on here that have gotten pregnant after at least 10 years of infertility. So I am telling you now....if you want it, it can and will happen and I wish to sprinkle you with a bit of baby dust today....GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!

Thanks for the update. Im so nervous that something will go wrong or my body wont hold it so im just keeping hopes up and thank you for helping. What a beautiful baby..Congrats to you!!

OMG, this is real. I mean, I took my at home test and it was positive but I never trust those things, I always got negative test with my daughter so I was already 4 months and feeling movement by the time she was confirmed. But yesterday, it was confirmed with a sonogram and I was still floored after trying for so long, you feel like its still not real! Now once I'm holding "him"(hopefully) then I will really believe it. It feels so awkward, I want to be excited but waiting for a problem. Not good at all...I needed to know that ppl have normal healthy babies this close to surgery and after losing so much and after infertility for so long, I am having anxiety like I've never experience in my life. My husband is super excited, it's kinda sexy...lol!! Please pray for us!!

Thank you I love hugs too!! This is Diamond, her daughter! Have a good day.

I play this song every morning!! Sometimes it still makes me cry but the strength in her words and voice, whew, it keeps me going!!

Just some info for severe reflux sufferers. I never knew acid reflux was so dangerous but now after weeks of choking in my sleep on gastric juices, my Dr. Did an endoscopy and found an ulcer and showed me the results of swelling and inflammation in my throat from the reflux. Its bad and if this Carafate doesn't clear it up my next step can be a full gastric bypass. I'm a sleeve pt for a reason...I DO NOT WANT THE BYPASS and now I may not have a choice. I wish I knew ahead of time the terrible results of severe GERD. Do your research!!

Hey there, just an update. I am cured of my Ulcer and no Gastric Bypass necessary. Lets hope it stays that way...

Thank u all so much. Didn't wanna tell anyone how bad it hurt. Just kinda been to myself and at home for the past few months and enjoying that as well. They do notice I have less to say but i waste my breath for no one. My sadness is mixed with anger. I always knew I would finally make things happen and thought I could spoil the people to death that was around me when I had nothing...I so badly wanted to show my appreciation for them being there while I was in school but maybe they thought I would never get anywhere? IDK but i'm trying to shake my sadness and you guys are keeping me smiling so thank u all very much for everything!!
