Bad FS response

[Onions]

I have my second FS appointment at the end of september, 2 years after the last one and she sent me a letter outlining that its probably pointless to go. She made out that losing weight is pivotal to getting pregnant (i am losing weight, why assume im not?) and that i have to stop my multiple schlerosis meds for at least 3 months before i can even consider help from them. This doesnt affect me during pregnancy but i will become ill without it before im pregnant.

Im so sick of it. Im not even that overweight. My BMI is 32. Im working so hard to lose it, down 5lb in 2 weeks with low gi and fasting. Im miserable and so hurt that ive never recieved ANY help. I think i need to just forget the whole thing at this point and come to terms with life minus children.

I don't think you need to give up. That letter is definitely not a positive one, anyone would be put off by it. Don't give up on your weight loss and baby goals because they sent out an insensitive letter.

I'm sorry that you are going through this. Is there a different place you can go to that will have a more positive & helpful doctor? I think it would be best to get a second opinion, especially if you need the MS meds.


Edit: I just realized our counters show that we have been trying for the exact same amount of time! Small world. We are ttc twins!

Oooo. My facebook pic is our shadows like the one on your post too lol.

Im just struggling at the moment i guess. I think I'm going to request a new FS at the appointment. She didnt even meed to send me a letter to be honest. What was the purpose of it? Silly :/

I can understand struggling. Having an insensitive FS doesn't help any. I hope you can get a different one that is more helpful.
