I'm not really sure why i am posting this, I guess I'm just hoping for a bit of reassurance really or honesty if I should be really worried.
I am currently almost 6 weeks pregnant (my first pregnancy which has taken a very long time to happen) and I am so terrified of something going wrong that I just can't enjoy it.
I am under 35 and don't have any health conditions but I am quite overweight ( a UK size 18) and have read that this can be a contributory factor in causing miscarriages.
I am eating very healthily since I've found out I'm pregnant and not drinking any alcohol or caffeine but I just feel so guilty that i didn't lose the weight before trying for a baby and now so scared that it will cause a mc.
Does anybody have any experience of being overweight in pregnancy or know anything more about the risks of mc?
