Can U Get Pregnet After Having Tummy Tuck with Muscle Repair?

Thank you for your post. You certainly can have a baby after tummy tuck. In a tummy tuck, we are putting your body back together similiar to what you were like before you were pregnant. Your muscle tension, your skin and your fat contours are adjusted. Once you are fully healed from your surgery, your body is just as able to accept a pregnancy as it was before your first pregnancy. However, if your belly area stretched after your first pregnancy, then you are likely to stretch again after your next pregnancy. Most surgeons recommend to have a tummy tuck after you are finished having childern, however, in certain instances, such as starting to date again, or just not being happy with your post pregnancy body, then it makes sense to go ahead and have a tummy tuck. Just realize that you may need a revision later on.Best Wishes,Pablo Prichard, MD

There is no safety issue associated with getting pregnant after a tummy tuck.  The only issue you will encounter is that the results of the tummy tuck will likely not be as good.  During your pregnancy, you will stretch out your now tight belly and you may need a procedure in the future to repair this "damage".
