Calling all post surgery mommies!

[Guest]

I had surgery for colon cancer a few years ago and am almost 6 months into my pregnancy. Just trying to see if anyone out there had any complications because of their surgery. I've talked to all of my doctors and am on top of things, but I worry about the adhesions and scar tissue that are certain to be in there. Anyone else already been through this?

I was 8 weeks pregnant when I was diagnosed with colon cancer and had surgery during my pregnancy. My pregnancy was uneventful after the surgery and progressed normally. During my surgery the surgeon noted a significant amount of scar tissue from a previous c-section. Therefore, I had a repeat c-section with my second child.

Blessings to you and your family.
