Pregnancy & lap band

 I am 3 weeks postpartum after having a c-section.  I was wondering if anyone else has gotten pregnant after lap band & what was it like after delivery?  How long after delivery did you wait to get a fill?  Also, I am breast feeding & plan on doing so for at least a year.
        
There are a few of us around (this is my 2nd band baby). You'll likely get more responses on the pregnancy and WLS forum: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/postop_pregnancy/

I didn't especially need a fill after delivering because I didn't have an unfill prior to delivery, so I can't say how long I waited. I breast fed just fine with my band.

Banded 03/22/06, 63% EWL! 276/261/184/220/155 (highest/surgery/lowest/Current/Goal). Revising to VSG soon. Mom to two of the cutest boys on earth.

 I waited 1 year but I dealt with ppd and didn't want to stress over my weight
