Can my gyno or other doctor able to see my sleeved stomach in an ultrasound or other X-rays .....

They could technically but they won't be looking at that. Definitely won't have an X-ray while pregnant.

Lol they will be scanning no way near your stomach - they will be looking inside your uterus.

Ultrasounds are safe during pregnancy. But definitely not x-rays. While they could see your sleeve, Nicolanz is right, they won't be looking for that. But are you just wondering about the kind of visibility on these tests or are you asking because you don't want your doctor or the ultrasound techs to know you've been sleeved?

Yes!!i don't want them to know about my sleeve...r u sure they won't see it ...

Well they could see it, I just don't know that they'll be looking.

BUT, way more importantly, I completely understand wanting to keep your surgery private, but you need to disclose your surgery to your doctors. It is an important part of your anatomy now and can effect more aspects of your health than you might realize. When pregnant, it's VERY important for both your health and the health of your baby that the doctor know you've had weight loss surgery. If you don't want the technicians to know, they likely wouldn't see it and you don't have to mention it to them, but your doctor NEEDS to know.

Oh good!!! You had me worried for a minute!! I really don't think they would see it. I have a lap band and it was in place during both of my pregnancies. I had quite a few ultrasounds with each baby, and even with having a foreign object in my body they didn't see it on ultrasound (or at least never said anything or asked me about it)! I think you'll be fine and they won't even notice!

Yes, the doctor will be removing my band and then perform the sleeve surgery. Hopefully it can all be completed in one surgery. I'm very ready to have my band out and get sleeved!
