Abstract
Bariatric surgery is regularly offered to women of childbearing age. Pregnancy after such surgery should be planned and requires special attention. Some complications associated with obesity during pregnancy are reduced after bariatric surgery, but reduced dietary intake and malabsorption can cause nutritional deficiencies, that need to be carefully screened for and supplemented. Dietary management is recommended, and any unusual abdominal pain should be referred to a bariatric surgeon. We offer a summary of recommendations for appropriate follow-up of these pregnancies.
