You'll want to wait until the baby is older. You'll be in the hospital for a few days and very sore from surgery afterward.
Keep in mind that bariatric surgery isn't a cure all. At the Kimkins Diet site we have members who had surgery and still remained overweight because they didn't change their food choices.
In addition, you'll find it difficult to eat many foods. They don't fit through the new small stomach opening.
What you WILL be able to eat is plenty of high calorie food that turns liquid and passes right through like mashed potatoes, gravy, sugar cereal, milk, soda, cheesecake, pastries, rice, beer, milkshakes, candy, rum, wine and vodka.

Weight loss surgery-like gastric bypass /lap band surgery / stomach stapling and gastrectomy have become very common and very safe now. My cousin got her Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in India. She has lost more than 65 lbs in 5 months and is very happy with the results. The price for obesity surgery is very less in India. My cousin just paid 25% of the cost she was quoted in America. She got her surgery from a company called Forerunners Healthcare.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines. I have read a lot of their patient stories also. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as bariatric surgery and weight loss surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that your Obesity surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

The only person who can tell you that is your doctor. But additionally, carrying and delivering a baby is a drain on your body. Caring for a newborn is no easy task. Love yourself enough to allow your body to take the time to recover before considering any other assaults on it. Having had two children, personally I would wait a year.

in case you talk on your ob merely before time and tell him/her which you incredibly want your tubes tied they're going to schedule you for a c-section and tie your tubes after handing over the toddler. in case you elect a vaginal delivery then you definately will could wait a minimum of 6 weeks to circulate back in to have your tubes tied. good good fortune!
