Pregnancy

[Brenda Sherwood 64]

I was just wondering if anyone has gotten pregnant since having the sleeve? If so did you have a normal pregnancy? I really think I may want a 2nd child but worry about lack of calories while pregnant and breastfeeding.

I work as a RN on a postpartum unit and I asked the lactation nurses about beast feeding and weight loss patients. I'm not sure if there are enough studies done with weight loss patients and breast feeding for her to give me a 100% answer but she said she wouldn't be surprised if there was less milk production, but everyone's body produces milk differently with or without WLS. But I think there is a section on this forum about women who have been pregnant with WLS. You might find a better answer there.
