Hi you lovely lot 😘
So I have my 1st ART app tomorrow at 1030, im going to Glasgow Royal Fertility incase it helps anyone if giving any advice.
I know my BMI is going to be checked and I'm honestly so stressed about it. When they checked it before for me it was 33.8 (it's to be under 35 as I'm self funding) butbi know i have gained a couple lbs and I reckon I'm just under (if I have my height correct) I'm just so worried if it's on 35 or over that I will be told to wait again.
I'm 36 and husband is 40(nearly 41). He has 2 kids aged 18 and 16. So he already feels old doing this again but he wants to do it for me. I don't think he would be bothered if I said I didn't want to go through with it. In fact I think he'd be relieved.
I know it bothers him that years ago we went to do NHS funded and I didn't quite make the under 30 BMI which was heartbreaking.
I just feel under so much pressure for tomorrow's appointment and it's stressing me out so much. Normally i can talk to my husband about it butbi just feel like he will be so mad if we have to wait again because of me and my bloods BMI.
I don't want anyone thinking he's a bad guy he really isn't and he has been so supportive of me losing weight I think its just his frustration at it all too. So I think were both just a bit on edge with it.
I don't really know what I want anyone to say or advise. I just needed to get it off my chest i think 🥺
