Guest guest Posted May 7, 2000 Report Share Posted May 7, 2000 Hi everyone.... Just a quick post to introduce myself. I had my lap RNY on 12/2/99 at NEMC in Boston. I am 26 years old, married with two kids.. I know it's pretty early for my being here, but I was very curious. I have been wanting to find others who have had surgery and got pregnant for some time now but didn't find this list until now. I was curious as to what all your surgeons said about getting pregnant after surgery? My surgeon told me to wait one year or until my weight evened out....Well,I started at 227 lbs. and am now 140 lbs. I am not far from my goal at all. My husband and I have two children now, ages 7 & 8, but really want a third pretty badly. We tried for a very long time to get pregnant before this surgery and it never happened. When I finally did become pregnant, I m/c at 3 months. My ob/gyn kept saying it was all weight related.I also have a fibroid uterus and was told I'd most likely end up w/ a hysterectomy before I'm 30 (This only came from one ob/gyn, so who knows!) I guess I'm kind of worried about the age difference between my kids if we wait any longer. What could happen if I were to get pregnant now? ANY information at ALL would be GREATLY appreciated.
