Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Hi all. I'm almost 3 years out from surgery and lost 135 pounds. I'm feeling great, maintaining my weight loss within 5 lbs and all blood tests reveal I'm healthy. I feel fabulous. My question to all of you is I'm in my 40's and thinking of becoming pregnant. I will consult my OBGYN before I do anything but wondering how you all feel of the safety of a 40+ year old woman considering her 1st child. ly, when I was younger and MO, I couldn't even think that I could take care of an infant. I was always so tired and depressed I wasn't in the right frame of mind. Now, I feel like I'm 15 years younger and doing so much and feel I have so much to give. I realize being 43 is old to have a baby -- but should I consider it? Is it overly risky? Will the baby be healthy? Gosh, I could go on and on with the questions/concerns. I value the opinions of all my fellow gastric bypass ladies. Look forward to hearing objective opinions. Thanks, Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
