Plus size pregnancy

[TiReDmUmone]

Hello all
I'm wanting to plan on trying for a baby this year, I am wanting to try and lose weight before I've joined slimming world and bought a 12 week count down on Monday .
I was just wondering what other peoples experiences were.
Thanks

Good luck TTC, how exciting! I had my baby in September and found it quite hard being overweight. I had back pain and round ligament pain that I dont think would have been as bad had I been smaller. My already large stomach was obviously being pushed further out by the growing baby so it was a lot for my body to hold so I think you are doing the right thing by trying to lose weight first, I said if we ever have another baby I want to be a lot smaller than when I started the last pregnancy. Having said that, i only gained 17lb the whole pregnancy which was gone within 2 weeks of having the baby.
Good luck again.
