How are you doing now? What have you found out about the risks and your recovery from surgery and pregnant at the same time? Will you get another TT after the birth? I hope all is well.

Everyone is very different. I had a tummy tuck in Sept 06'. Right now Im 23 weeks preg. My doctor says my only worry is the scar tissue. Im going to have a c-section like my previous two and with that being the 4th incision, thats his main concern. Otherwise, Im watching my weight, Ive only gained 3lbs and the only weirdness is the tight filling around the incision.Otherwise it is completely safe, and if I need to have a touch up to the tuck, so be it. Baby is growing great, my belly is poking out, but I havent gotten any new stretch marks! I make sure to lotion up daily. You'll be fine, Just take it easy and listen to your doc!

Okay, I have a best friend going through the exact same thing except she is about 2.5 months out of surgery and 6-7 weeks pregnant. She got pregnant 4 weeks after surgery. I saw the post about the other lady who just got pregnant the day of her surgery, (not sure how that happened since she should have been in the operating room at like 6am, but I guess some people are freaky.) Anyway, her plastic surgeon is telling her it is very dangerous for her and she will be in excruciating pain and she will probably be on bed rest after like 4 mos. and it could possibly cause problems to the baby and so on and so on. He is basically telling her she should have an abortion. He also confered w/ a gyno who supposedly said all of this. Does anyone have any thoughts? It seems as if there are other women out there who have gone through this and there has been some pain, but everything came out okay. Please reply if you know of a similar situation.

I am 3 weeks post op, not pregnant but feeling great! My plastic surgeon told me aware before surgery that if pregnancy occurred, it would be like any other pregnancy - not that all pregnancies are the same anyhow. A slight touch up my be necessary Very Happy

I have just found out I am 2 weeks gone I had my tummy tuck and boob job just shy of 2 years ago. I waited 8 yrs to have it done figuring I wouldn't be having another baby!! I have been told it is possible its just that I may be left with loose skin and a bad scar. Ive lived with a body I hated for 8 yrs am finally pleased with what I see and now hit with an unexpected pregnancy, my son was 9lb 4 so I am worried about being in pain as when I gain a few pouds my stomache feels tight!!
