Asked By:kaizen408 in San Jose, CA

I just found out I am pregnant...about 8 weeks. The problem is I am also 7 weeks PO a tummy tuck. I never thought this would or could happen to me. I am 40 and have never been able to get pregnant. I am stressed out please advise on if the surgery or pain meds after could of done any harm and if it is safe to be pregnant at this time due to recovery from TT.
