What should come first... pregnancy or band?

For those of you have had both... pregnancy and band... looking back.. would you prefer going through the pregnancy before being banded or banded before pregnancy? And why?

I'm torn about it. Next Monday is my final day of the 6 month diet. I haven't had AF in over 5 years without medication and have been told I can't get pregnant due to PCOS and not ovulating. Well last week, I find out, I'm pregnant. Praise God (without fertility meds!!!) This week, I find out, I'm loosing the baby due to low progesterone. So.... I'm debating on trying again or going ahead with the surgery first. Any suggestions?

First of all I am so sorry that you lost your baby! Miscarriage is very common with PCOS. I know it would be tempting to try again right away, but I would encourage you to get the band focas on losing weight for a year and getting your body ready to grow a baby. You will have a better outcome and healthy pregnancy if you are more fit. The band is fine during pregnancy. I also have PCOS and havent had a period in 15-17 years on my own. I got my band and lost only 60 lbs when my period returned and my fertility I am not pg on my own with no fertility drugs. I did LOTS and LOTS of fertility meds prior to my band attempting to get pg. It did finally work and I have 2 clomid babies, but the pg were horrible and I had a 40% chance of losing them. This pg is very different so far with alot of my weight gone. I still have a ways to go but I am so glad I am banded. Take care whatever your decision. Jill
