Hi Ladies!

Hopefully, no one here remembers me. (I hope they've all gotten pg by now.) But, I started my journey to motherhood right here on this board. I really appreciated all the support I received here and wanted to let you know that even when your plus-size it is very possible to get pregnant, have a healthy pregnancy, safe delivery, and healthy baby.

I was very fortunately and got PG in my 2nd cycle off BCP. (I started hanging out on these boards before we were actively TTC.) I'm sure it helped that I charted. My pregnancy was fairly text-book and my extra weight didn't cause any problems. My baby ended up being born by c-section (he wouldn't descend 12 hours after my water broke) but everything worked out great. Three months after his birth, my weight was actually down 10 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight.

Throughout TTC and my pregnancy no ever gave me any grief about my weight. I hope you are all that lucky! Good luck and lots of baby dust to you all!



Slingnmom - it is really neat that on the stats page my "arrival" is listed! Thanks! I'm sorry I didn't get around to posting here sooner.
