All pregnancies have the potential to experience some degree of complications for known or unknown causes. Your OB-GYN can best advise you on any concerns you may have regarding pregnancy complications. However, when it comes to your tummy tuck’s effect on your pregnancy and your unborn child, in almost all cases you should be able to carry your baby healthily to term. If your abdominal muscles are very tight, to begin with, you may experience tightening or pulling sensations as your belly grows and stretches, but this is not dangerous. You may also feel that your baby bump doesn’t stick out as far as you expect, but your child should still have plenty of room to grow and thrive.
