How Long Should I Wait to Get Pregnant After Breast Implant Removal?

8039anon
I was a full B before breast implant surgury, which took me to a 32DD. I was young, and rushed into a decision that I should have put more thought into. Now, almost four years later my husband and I are getting ready to start a family, and I want them out! Will pregnancy within months of the explantation procedure interfere with the healing process? Is there a chance that the breast growth that occurs in pregnancy will help add volume to the stretched out skin, or is this wishful thinking?
