shrinkingV 0 Posted July 28, 2009 I've been lurking around here for a few weeks now. Finally decided to join. I'm 28, married for 3 years with no kids. We've been trying for 2 years with nothing to show for it yet. I've been slowly gaining since high school. My first seminar is on Monday and I'm completely nervous and excited about starting this process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Welcome and good luck! Just fyi...many surgeons prefer you don't get pregnant for a while (like a year, but it varies) after banding, for your safety and that of the baby. But also losing weight helps many many get pregnant, so that's the total upside! If you decide you want the surgery, since you want to get pregnant (I assume?) ask your surgeon what his "wait" limit is! :biggrin: (something to check into at the seminar!) Hope you enjoy your seminar! Mine was a gas! (not the bad kind LOL) Edited July 29, 2009 by RestlessMonkey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shrinkingV 0 Posted July 29, 2009 The "wait" period is definately on my list of questions to bring with me to the info session. Slowly this list of questions is growing. Strange how the longer it gets the more nervous I seem to get. However most of my family and friends that I have told about my plan is very supportive. Just a few aren't sure about it but aren't voicing anything to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
