I had gastric bypass 12/30/14 and had a lot of completions such as a LEAK. I still have my feeding tube and a drain. My leak is very small as of 5/9/15. My question is I am worried I maybe pregnant and with me still healing could it make me have a miscarriage, due to not getting all the nutrition I need. My stupidity for not being more careful since I am still healing. I haven't talked to my Dr yet just waiting a little longer to be for sure.

Starting weight 297, Current 199

From what I've read, you're probably more at risk for having a small baby than a miscarriage. The tiny new embryo doesn't need much to grow on. I was horribly nauseated for both my pregnancies and didn't eat well as a result, and the kiddos were fine. BUT, you need to get to your OB and your surgeon ASAP and do whatever you can to get the nutrition you need for a growing little one. I wish you good luck.

P.S. There are some pregnancy tests that can tell if you are pregnant 6 days before your period is due, you might want to run out and grab one.
