Hi All,

I am 3 months post VSG and found out I am pregnant, it was unexpected and I’m nervous. My surgeon says it safe and I am meeting with the dietitian to make sure I get enough Protein and nutrients to sustain. Has anyone else been through this? TIA.

I see post on here almost weekly about people getting pregnant soon after surgery. Saw one a couple weeks ago that they were only like a month out. Try using the search box at the top of the page and type in Pregnant. It will show you a bunch of topics regarding it. Some info for you until some people reply to this post :) Good luck.

Congratulations.

It’s great you’ve spoken with your surgeon & are seeing your dietician to discuss your changing needs. You may be surprised how little you will have to change your diet or increase your calories to support your growing baby. You’re not eating for two adults but for yourself & a very small baby.

How is everything going? I’m 3 months out. 50 pounds lighter and just found out I’m pregnant. I’m so scared :(

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
