Red face Got Some Shocking News Today

Last week I found out that my insurance will cover both WLS & removal of excess skin...
But.....
I found out today that I am going to have to put off having my surgery. I found out that I am pregnant.
Yep...I am in shock..this one was not planned...but will be a blessing the same as my other two. If it is ok with everyone I would like to continue to come here and do my research and learn for you guys.

Hugs to all.

Carolyn

Amazing news. BTW. I have lots of plus size maternity clothes which are bagged up ready for good will. If you want to pay shipping they are all yours. I live in Florida so it is mostly Florida appropriate clothes that you will start wearing at about 5-6 months. Let me know.

Happy Baby to you! I think it's great that you found out you're expecting a baby before you got the skin removed. Looks like everything is falling into place in perfect order!

Wow, what a surprise for you!!! Congrats on the new little one. You are always welcome here on the board. We even welcome anyone who just struggles with weight, but chooses not to have surgery, or can't get it for some reason......because we still offer lots of support and wise advice about behavior, exercise, healthy eating, etc. So join in and get to know everyone....and keep us updated on the new addition coming along.

Congratulations!!! How old are your other two? Hopefully old enough to be a big help to mommy!

The surgery will still be there after this baby is born - you will just have one more very good reason to get healthy!

Enjoy your pregnancy!
