Anyone planning on (or have had)babies have surgery

[AnA92212 577]

Had my daughter in March. We can't try for 2 years but has anyone had a baby after surgery? Anyway planning on having one after surgery? What is/wad your timeframe? We aren't quite sure if we want to plan to have another baby or not. The cost of daycare is crazy. Just looking for stories of others

I had surgery 11 days ago and the plan has always been to have another child and I already have 2 boys! Mr surgeon has given me strict instructions NOT to conceive for at least 12 months! Which is fine for me.

Of course this is to allow my body to adjust according and ensure that I can consume a healthy amount before I get pregnant. Hope that helps.

Mine is saying 2 years. I had a difficult time getting pregnant the 1st time and I will be 39 by the time we start trying again. Thanks!

I have 3 kids (4, 7, and 8) and we want one more. I want to lose at least 100 pounds and be a year out before getting pregnant, though I think my surgeon recommends 18 months. I'm going to be 37 in November, plus I don't want too much of an age difference between my youngest and a new baby, so I really don't want to wait too long. I do want to give myself time to be successful with my weight loss though.

I have one child- he is 3 1/2. I spoke to my surgeon at the first appointment about pregnancy after gastric bypass because I want to have 1-2 more kiddos. I am 34 so I have a little time to wait... ????

I plan to wait 2 years after surgery to give my body time to heL and to make my new way of eating a habit/more automatic.

I gained 90lbs the first time I got pregnant. I am not going to repeat that!

Also it might be easier for you to get pregnant at a healthy weight!
