Bariatric Surgery Reduces Pregnancy Problems in Obese Women
The New York Times online recently posted an article “Bariatric Surgery Reduces Pregnancy Problems in Obese Women” after a recent study by The New England Journal of Medicine was published.
The article sums up that “Weight-loss surgery may help obese women have safer pregnancies and deliver healthier babies, compared with women who do not undergo surgery, according to a major new study.
Obese women have more problems in pregnancy, including gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, and stillbirth. Their babies are more likely to be premature, overweight or underweight at birth, have certain birth defects, and develop childhood obesity.”
We were thrilled to also read that our patient from Kailua, Hawaii Ristina Davis and her baby Rezen was featured in the post!
“In Kailua, Hawaii, Ristina Davis, 34, delivered her first child, Rezen, in January, about five years after having gastric bypass surgery that addressed her high blood pressure and prediabetic symptoms. She said her weight fell to 147 pounds from 301 pounds. Her pregnancy was normal and Rezen was born at a healthy weight “exactly on her due date,” said Ms. Davis, who works with children with autism. “All that fat is not in the way of things,” she said. “The pipes flow very well.”
This article further supports the growing literature that pregnancies are not affected by bariatric surgery, and in fact improve the health of the mother and child. It is truly amazing how far reaching a bariatric surgery can improve the health of an individual. To read the full article from the New York Times online click here.
