This has made WLS worth everything!

Years ago I was diagnosed with PCOS and told that I would probably never be able to have kids! It's something I've always wanted and something my husband and I have tried to accomplish for years! My reasons for having WLS were to get healthy and to be able to conceive a child. Now at 16 months post op Im pregnant! We are very excited and this has come as a complete shock! We got the ok from my surgeon to start trying in March. This is one of the many things that has made WLS worth everything I've been through since surgery! It hasn't been easy but I've got my life back and now the thing I've wanted for so long that has been so far out of reach because of weight related issues is actually happening!
DH had WLS in April and is doing well! We are thrilled to be able to be bringing a child into this world as healthier, stronger parents!

Congratulations! That is very exciting news!

Motherhood is an amazing journey and I'm so happy for you and your husband that you are finally able to experience this after all of your struggles.

I already have a child. A 2 year old girl who is my world. Hubby and I definitely want more children but my weight has a huge impact on my fertility. I'm hoping to correct those issues with my WLS as well. It will also be exciting to have an actually baby bump with my next pregnancy instead of just a fat belly :)

I wish you a very happy, healthy pregnancy!!!
