Any "plus-size", bigger gals TTC their first? :)

[MissAmber]

Im a biiger girl too. Have been all my life. The docs say my baby maker is fine, aside that I have irregular periods ( 60+ ) day cycles or more sometimes. My man and I are trying. I am taking Fertil Aid and Vitex in hopes that it will kick start Aunt Flo and regular ovulations. I am on week 3 for taking them. I notice some slight changes... but nothing note worthy yet. Good luck to us all!!!

[Hysteria824]

I'm new!! I weigh 200 pounds and 2 years old TTC #1. I've always loved been a curvy girl - and OH wouldnt have it any other way. But now after 16 months TTC we went to docs and I know from books and advise that to be helped with any fetility aid they want you to be at least a 30 BMI - which certainly isn't me.

So out with the fizzy pop and sweets and in with the wholemeal pasta, chicken and veg!! Im not losing weight for vanity - purely to help me get pg!! My OH is trying too because his sperm count is low. He's supportive in everyway he can but a little gutted Im losing my curves (as am I to be truthful!).

Is anyone else losing weight for pg reasons?? I wish I didnt have to but I know it'll help.

GOOD LUCK to everyone!! x

Also a bigger girl, I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 17 and weight has always been a struggle for me. I am eating healthy, working out, and hoping to lose a bit of weight in order to make it easier for me to get pregnant.

[sparklelight]

hi ladies thought i would introduce myself. I have recently been diagnoised with PCOS arounf 4 months ago, i am currently also on metforming 1500 which i have been for the past 3 months and have been refused any further vertility treatment ie: clomid by the gyno until i loose around 4 stone, very fustrating and I have to date managed to loose a stone but really struggled with that. xx

 

[PandaMao]

Hi sparklelight! Welcome to the group. We don't post on this thread anymore, we moved to a new one (click on the Team curvy bumps link in my signature). You are more than welcome to join us there. Good luck with losing the weight. We all know very well what a struggle that is. As for as clomid goes, have you heard of soy isoflavones? They are taken like clomid and they are supposed to work the same way as clomid. I'll be taking them next cycle if this one doesn't pan out.

 

[dbluett]

Hello Ladies. I tried two cycles of clomid with no response. Going to be starting gonal-f and IUI. Any other ladies out there been on gonal-f?

 

[monnie38]

[LillyTame]

This team has been pretty quiet...are all the ladies preggers?!

Come on ladies! Let's give this thread a BIG BUMP!

 

[Rockinmomtobe]

I'm with you Lilly Tame. I could use some 'plus size' support. A little about me:
I'm 5'6 190 lbs and slowly falling. At my heaviest I was 320, that was a few years ago, so it's coming off slowly, but surely.
This is my first month and first time TTC, I'm excited and optimistic. My weight definitely concerns me, but I know I am doing everything I should be to be healthy. That's all I can do. I worry about silly things like people not knowing I'm pregnant until I'm ready to pop or that my OH will be disgusted with how I look (that's all in my head I know, he's very loving) but, I still worry. I'd love to hear from some more of you and let's keep this going!

 

[LillyTame]

Rockinmomtobe

I'm 5'5 and 239 at last count....the heaviest I've ever been was starting this year off at 241. So I'm working my way down slowly too. One of my motivators is being able to see and feel my bump before I'm ready to pop!

This is also my first month actively TTC...but I have been around BnB the last few months gathering up as much info as possible and I hope it helps me get pregnant sooner. I'm now in my 2ww @ 3dpo...where are you in your cycle?

 

[Rockinmomtobe]

Sorry I didn't read this sooner, I started a new thread for this, lol. I am currently about CD8. Not sure if I will even ovulate this cycle since this is my first month off BC, but we're BDing every other day just in case. GL with your first TWW, keep me posted here or hop over to the other thread I started. I think I called it Support for Plus size TTC #1

 

[puddnpie]

I am 26 and I am in the 200 pound range and wear a 18/20 in clothing. My husband And I have been trying since about Septmeber.
