I recently found out I was pregnant and I have to get surgery where I would need to be put to sleep. Can the doctor do that? Is it still safe?

Most of us would not do elective, non-emergent cases on pregnant patients.
On the other hand, we frequently need to administer general anesthesia for surgical emergencies, such as acute appendicitis, and the patients do fine. The risk is more from the surgery than from the anesthesia. If at all possible, electronic fetal heart rate monitoring should be done during and after the operation.

Sorry, but, definitely. Pulling out doesn't really do anything. There will be pre-ejaculate when he starts getting hard and when he enters you. It's just part of the body's anatomy to self-lubricate. Not to mention sperm can survive inside of you for 2 to even 6 days, meaning you may not ovulate for days after you have sex, but you will still get pregnant. Don't do that to yourselves, or your potential children. If you aren't ready to accept the responsibilities of having unprotected sex, i.e. STDs or pregnancy, don't even go there. If you are ready to accept the responsibilities, then both of you get checked for STDs, and commit to each other to be completely and totally monogamous. Then, get yourself on the pill, it comes in many different forms, or try other methods like the new NuvaRing. Intra-uterine (UTIs) methods usually are not the safest and can cause other problems later in life. You can also buy a basil thermometer at the drugstore and take your temperature every day in the morning as soon as you wake up to read your hormone and heat levels. Buy one with instructions that you can follow precisely to determine the exact times in which you ovulate and menstruate throughout your monthly cycle. You should talk to your doctor or gyno about all the different options. Remember though, all of these methods should still be used with other protection, namely, condoms, if you really want to be safe. Think about it this way: what's better, safe, risk-free sex where the two of you can fully enjoy yourselves, or possibly endangering your own and your unborn children's lives?

It can be done safely and sometimes has to be done for instance a C section delivery. My friend recently was 6 months and had gall bladder surgery. Everything went fine for her and the baby. Best of luck to you and yours!

um I really don't think its safe I know they had to put me to sleep for my emergency c-section and they didn't give me the anesthesia until they were totally ready to get the babies out...and than it was a rush to get them so that the anesthesia didn't hit them.

Yes, they can, for example, women find themselves in emergency situations all the time - but they generally try to avoid it if possible.
What they will do is try to do a benefit/risk analysis (i.e. does the benefit outweigh any risk?)
There are a lot of variables....
Good Luck

Just tell the doctor you are pregnant.

You NEED to inform your doctor ASAP.
I personally would not if I was pregnant.

Tell your doctor you're pregnant and see what he/she says.
