In 2008, I had a Tubal Ligation. It has been two years since I had Gastric Bypass Surgery and lastly, I had a tummy tuck done 10/2015. I am 32 and in the next 3 years (Hopefully)! If am able to I would like to have one or two children. And out of curiousity is it possible to carry twins? What will I need to do!? If I can.
