Research about weight in pregnancy

[liftis44]

Hi, I am looking for any women who might be interested to give opinions about my PhD research. I am exploring the experiences and beliefs of pregnant women who have a BMI of 40 or more, and also those of their families and friends. Lots of women are treated as high risk in pregnancy because of their weight and some of the pregnancy lifestyle interventions tried so far have not been very popular or effective. My project aims to find out about women’s lives and pregnancies and what would suit and work for them. I have my participants already, so I am looking for volunteers to give opinions about my research questions (whether you think I am asking the right questions) and ideas for papers – to form a sort of interest group - so you don’t need to be currently pregnant or any particular shape or size, just willing and interested! Many thanks.
