Question:
I am only 4 months post-op and found out I'm pregnant
I was wondering if anyone else has found that they are pregnant after such a short time of having the lap-bypass, if the Dr. considered them high-risk and the outcomes... Thank you Jackie — neumjake (posted on October 11, 2004)

Congratulations!!! Im not sure if you would be considered high risk but I
have heard of women getting pregnant that soon afterwards and having normal
healthy babies. I think there's a website somewhere on here for pregnant
moms.

Congratulations!! I was just under four months out when I found out I was
pregnant. My doctor just watched me closely and monitored the baby's
growth. We both did just fine. Initially, I lost 30 pounds, but toward
the end I gained 20. I am still breastfeeding just fine. Relax and just
enjoy feeling your baby grow in you. God bless, Monica

CONGRATS CONGRATS!! I am 9 months post op and 3 1/2 months pregnant.
Really the only difference with this pregnancy and my others Drs-wise is I
go more often to monitor my weight and the babies growth. My Dr said he
doesnt care if I dont gain but he really wanted me to stop loosing, which
has subsided. He also said Id get more ultrasounds to ever further check
the babies growth......which is fine with me. They do stress the vitamin
intake and eating the right foods...its easy to want to eat the stuff we
crave which for me is all not so healthy stuff. So, as long as everything
else in your pregnancy goes fine you can just expect a few extra Dr visits,
and theres nothin wrong with that! Enjoy the wonderful blessing of carrying
a baby!
