Anyone overweight & preggers?
This is probably going to be such a daft post! Was wondering if any of you ladies are overweight and pregnant? Im worrying about every little thing! And the newest one is my weight! Will it affect my pregnancy? How will my bump look compared to you slim girls? Will i even get a bump? Or just look fatter? The questions going round my head are crazy!!

Health wise weight hasn't affected me at all, but i think some doctors give extra tests to bigger girls to check for things like gestational diabetes, but your mw will be able to go over that stuff with you. As long as you are happy and eat healthily, your baby will be just fine so don't let it worry you! I would think that if your weight were that big a problem your body wouldn't have let you conceive in the first place...
Sorry, i've rambled on there, i was worried about it too at the start though, same as you, so i hope that has helped.

I have had no problems with anything, i have had a gtt test but that was fine.
Dont worry so much and enjoy your pregnancy

joking aside, i've not done any kind of exercise for 3 months (2 previous m/c so taking it super easy) but i'm going to finally crack open the davina dvd next week after my scan and hopefully stem the weight gain!
With my last 2 pregnancies still looked major pregnant when they were toddlers so dont wanna be like that this time (who am I trying to kid!!) but thought that Davina one might help a bit!
