Hello,

I had the Gastric Sleeve on January 30th 2015. I am currently 17 weeks pregnant with my first child. I really want to breastfeed but I'm seeing mixed reviews on this. Any tips on this? I lost over 130 after sleeve.

do you have a nutritionist to work with? I think it is totally do-able and so good for you and baby *if* you can get enough calories in.

you may need a different kind of Protein shake during that time.

I nursed all 7 of my babies - what wonderful memories. and because I am a lazy mama, and could sleep and nurse at the same time. :-)
