Being only 10 months post-op I don't know how this is going to effect

everything. My biggest concern, of course, is gaining weight. I

will be very careful during this time.

Is there anyone out there that is post-op pregnant?

MileaH: Congrats to you! I'm so happy for you. I can totally

understand about being apprhensive, though... it's a big change. I

personally don't know of anyone post-op DS who is pregnant (although I think

I remember hearing at least one person has been), but there is a group

ossg-pregnant on yahoogroups...If you haven't already, maybe you could check

it out and meet others who are post-op wls (mainly RNY, I think)...

all the best,
