Well, it's been about 9 months. ..

Did your surgeon warn you how fertile you become during the weight loss process?   Mine did and I didn't believe him.  After all,  I literally paid thousands of dollars trying to get pregnant with #1 and #2.  Well, it's 1am and here I sit with surprise #3, trying to get her to sleep.  :)

It was a great pregnancy.   I gained 25 pounds and it all came off in 2 weeks.   My daughter is 1 month old as of yesterday and I have recommitted myself to finish this journey.  I'm currently sitting at 197 pounds and my goal is to hit 170.  I was given the gift at a new lease on life and I don't intend to take it for granted.   Now I have a new little cheerleader to help keep me motivated (exhausted and in dire need of sleep. ..but motivated none the less).

I look forward to being back on here and getting back into the swing of things. 

Good luck on the rest of your journey & congratulations on your little miracle!

Congratulations on your surprise! And I wish you much success in the continuation of your journey.

Congratulations!!  

Congratulations on your new little miricle!!

as someone who also spent thousands, 

I wish I would have taken my fertility dr. Serious

when he told me all I had to do was loose weight..

denial is a POWERFUL thing!

enjoy those sleepless nights..they grow up too fast! 

No kidding, right?   I was convinced that my PCOS was 100% the reason.   And while it was what prevented the spontaneous pregnancies, the cause to all of that was the excess weight. 

This pregnancy was so much easier than my last 2 and I'm almost 40 at this point. 

Welcome back, Diana!  Congratulations on your new baby...and on getting the pregnancy weight off so fast - wow!  

Congratulations that is so exciting to hear and have confirmed.  My surgeon did warn and he also told me how he would should really be offering a sleeve as an option instead of ivf - even in Australia where he have very good insurance, IVF is way more than out of pocket expenses for a sleeve.

We were going to be trying now, but since I have decided to have a second sleeve done, we will be waiting until I get to goal (hoping for 6 months) and then we can try again.

Also great to hear that your 25lbs came off quickly too.

I can't wait to have our #1 :D
