What Are The Risks Of Muscle Tightening On The Fetus During Pregnancy?

Question: Hello, i had tummy tuck with muscle tightening about a month 1/2 ago and i just found out I'm 4 weeks pregnant. First question is.. is there any risk for my unborn baby? is it possible to get a surgeon to perform surgery on me again to undo those muscle stitches even tho I'm pregnant?
Brief Answer:
Repeat surgery can cause abortion.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The muscle tightening will all become loosened up again due to pregnancy. There can be muscle tear also due to pregnancy. The unborn baby is safe as of now. Repeat surgery can be dangerous for the baby. You need to consult your gynecologist for a physical examination for assessment regarding the need of repeat surgery.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
