If you are thinking about adding to your family, you should wait to get a tummy tuck. Since pregnancy strains abdominal muscles and stretches the skin, it can reverse your abdominoplasty results, causing you to need additional procedures later to restore your abdomen and waistline to their former shape. However, if you have an unexpected pregnancy, your previous tummy tuck will not prevent you from being able to carry a child to full term, nor will it adversely affect your or your baby’s health.
