Hi all! I'm new here, just joined because my boyfriend and I have decided to begin trying for a baby! He really wants us to start our family so the family (grandparents and such) will be able to get to see our first child
I'm worried about this though, because I'm quite overweight, I'm at least 20st and because this is my first, I'm looking for tips and such but it's scared me reading about overweight women getting pregnant! Any success stories?

Thank you Xmas Smile

Also, is it normal to have tender breasts after not taking the mini pill for about a month? Had a bit of cramping, which I don't want to get my hopes up about, I could have sworn AF was going to appear when I was cramping, I'm usually spot on when I think AF is about to appear. Also these bloody emotions, how normal is it to laugh like mad, cry, get down and then want to try for a baby, all within 20 minutes? Grin any help will be greatly appreciated, I'm new to this and I've nobody I can talk to about it!
