Guest guest Posted September 9, 2002 Report Share Posted September 9, 2002 i am not saying this to be mean, just food for thought, but you may want to reexamine how close together you want to have a baby then weight loss surgery, especially if you are planning on breastfeeding. even if you dont plan on breastfeeding your body is going to be exhausted from pregnancy, delivery and then all the energy you will need to take care of a newborn. to complicate your body system more by adding another surgery right after childbirth or in the first several months would be taxing to your system. i myself thought about having my panni during my maternity leave but am trying to talk myself out of it as i would run the risk of not being able to care for my baby as best as i should.. just food for thought, if you will pardon the pun, not making a judgement on your idea. best of luck to you.. lisa edc 3-18-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2002 Report Share Posted September 10, 2002 , I too want to have my thighs and stomach done eventually. I say eventually because I will most likely have to pay out of pocket, as I have different insurance today then I had during my WLS. Have you done any research on this yet? I havent, starting from scratch, so I was just curious.

Marcy, The same doc who did my arms will be doing the belly. He says that I could do it as little as 3 months after delivery provided that I am at prepartum weight. My insurance should cover the belly. I am building a case for the thighs since I get this rash and dry itch. It is the pits. I have the body of two different women! My upper body is about a 12-14 while my lower is an 18-20! Most of that lower body issue is this flippin skin! I am having my seamstress make me a slip girdle for when I can't wear a regular one. I can't imagine shaking and jiggling my way through the next 6 months! Hugs, edd 3/25/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 10, 2002 Report Share Posted September 10, 2002 I've been thinking about that as well, does anyone know if it would be possible to have an RNY at the same time as a c-section??

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2002 Report Share Posted September 12, 2002 Thanks for enlightening me. I was hoping to have surgery, lose weight, wait about 18 months and have the baby. But by surprise, when you least expect it, I got pregnant. So my plans have changed. And I decided that this was better anyway. I don't plan to have any more children after this one. So having the WLS afterwards works well. I am anxious for the WLS becuase I am so uncomfortable. And I was hopig to have at least one pregnancy where I at least felt good. But I am here again with the worst hip and leg pains because of the pressure of the baby combined with my weight. Thanks again for responding. > i am not saying this to be mean, just food for thought, but you may want to > reexamine how close together you want to have a baby then weight loss > surgery, especially if you are planning on breastfeeding. even if you dont > plan on breastfeeding your body is going to be exhausted from pregnancy, > delivery and then all the energy you will need to take care of a newborn. to > complicate your body system more by adding another surgery right after > childbirth or in the first several months would be taxing to your system. i > myself thought about having my panni during my maternity leave but am trying > to talk myself out of it as i would run the risk of not being able to care > for my baby as best as i should.. just food for thought, if you will pardon > the pun, not making a judgement on your idea. best of luck to you.. lisa edc > 3-18-3 > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 Hi Jana, I had my surgery August 27, 2001, and I got pregnant on June 1, 2002. So far, I have gained about 15-18 lbs during my pregnancy. The docotrs say I have gained what the " average " person would gain being pregnant. I have also had a hard time making the best food decision since becoming pregnant. I hope this helps & best of luck to you! Also, I just had my ultrasound and the baby is healthy and developing at a normal rate. Her size and weight and everything is one week older than she really is.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 Hi Jana, I got pregnant 9 mos. post op (LAP proximal RNY) and was still about 40 to 50 lbs from goal. I didn't gain any weight with the pregnancy...lost 12 at the beginning and only gained back 8 lbs of that. I had a perfectly healthy baby girl in May. She was 7 lbs 2 oz. Good luck!
