Hey love - if it's not too personal a question, how much do you weigh?
I was 286lbs when I fell pregnant, and had actually put about 14lbs on before conceiving! I did the whole "healthy eating, vitamin taking, not drinking" thing but it didn't work - as soon as I just relaxed and stopped worrying it happened!
As many of the ladies here know, I've lost about 35lbs since getting pregnant because I just can't eat as much any more, and I had quite bad morning sickness, but even so I haven't had any problems whatsoever through my pregnancy and my weight hasn't made me feel uncomfortable in any way.
Perhaps ntnp is the way to go for you, not focusing and putting pressure on yourself will help greatly - it did for me.
I'm not saying that losing weight won't help and be a great benefit to the health of you and baby, I just wanted to let you know that being bigger doesn't automatically cause problems conceiving - it only took me 6 months after coming off the depo which I had been on for 4.5yrs - or make pregnancy difficult.
I wish you all the luck in the world sweetie xxxx
Thanks Betty!
I actually conceived my 2 1/2 year old the first month we ever tried. And by tried, I mean, stopped using protection. I was 31 and weighed 250 at the time. Relatively trouble free, although I did have high blood pressure and my doctor ended up inducing me at 37 weeks and it failed so I had to have a c-section, which really wasn't that bad, except my baby had to spend nearly 2 weeks in the NICU and so I had a hard time when going to see him.
When he was around 8 months old, we stopped using protection again, and I got pregnant the first cycle that time, too. I weighed about 265 I think. I couldn't get a BFP until almost 8 weeks along, and ended up with a MMC at nearly 13 weeks. That was in March 2009.
Since then, I think I've had one chemical, but since I never had blood work to confirm it, I feel weird saying that. I did have positive tests that turned negative, was late, and had a crappy AF.
Mostly I've been pretty relaxed about it - just trying to BD when I get EWCM, but not temping or using opks or anything.
This past cycle, I used opks, got a positive on CD 18, and, before AF came, honestly tested over 80 times, although 60 of those were ICs.
It's become an obsession since my miscarriage.
So now I weigh 265 again (down about 30 lbs from the beginning of the year).
I know I'm obsessing about it, and need to stop. I just...can't.
Welcome Welcome Welcome! I will get you added to our member's list, Whats your due date? And this is your first, right?
Which will be soon than last cycle which was at 20 days. I am really liking this Vitex and it seems to do its job. 
So out of the original gals from here we have 2 or 3 
I'm CD 18 today, still feeling pretty good although perhaps slightly more tired than pre-ov. Still have this niggling headache thing going on. Oh yeah - I'm either 4 or 5 dpo. (not sure if I ov'd on CD 13 or 14, had mittleschmertz both days)
Your going to do great!
We all love you here and we got your back, we are all holding your hand(through the internet)
I don't want to get an epidural but the doctors here in town and all the baby shows I've seen seem to give them out like they are candy if you want them or not! I saw one show where this lady said "I don't want an epidural" and she was in labor for maybe 2 hours and the nurse said "you've been in labor far too long, your getting an epidural!" and she was like "no I think I can do it" and the nurse got pissed and was like "look we are doing our job to save your baby, and your baby has been in too long so its time for an epidural" then the girl out of fear that her baby might die got the epidural, I was SO mad! And the hospital here in town gave my friend an epidural right after she got there and she was in labor for 42 hours!! Then they finally decided to give her a c-section, so I told my husband "I don't want stupid people to help me give birth!" lmao! So we decided we feel safer at home, so I wouldn't be pushed into anything.
