When Did You Get Preggos?

[911chrystal 12]

How long was it after surgery that you got pregnant? Just wondering.

Also I know most surgeons say wait 12-24 months to get pregnant (mine said the same plan on waiting out the 12) , but I've seen a couple that said no reason to stop TTC

I had revision surgery (due to broken band- not my fault) in 10/09 and got preggers in 5/10. My original surgery was 1/08. I had lost a total of about 120lbs when I got knocked up. It was unplanned but welcome! I did gain all my weight back and am back working it all off again. 72lbs down, baby is 16 mos old.

I was 7 months post op. I'm now 14 weeks and 4days!!! I had 3 cc remove when I found out. I still have 3.9 in. I lost 60#'s after surgery.

I waited till 2 years to start trying, per my doctors advice and wanting to lose as much as I could. I got pregnant on the 4th cycle. I can't believe she will be 2 weeks old tomorrow!!

I got my band in march 2010 fell pregnant in September 2010 unfortunatly lost it but then conceived again in may 2011 I now have a beautiful baby boy now 4 months old I had no issues with my band during pregnancy did not get unfilled my food intake was good, the weight I gained was all baby. I was never told not to fall pregnant with in the first 12 months I was just told when u lose a fair amount of weight ur fortilaty rate is higher, everyone is different u will know within urself when ur ready to conceive ur body will tell u, never give up....
