Should I Get Pregnant Now??? Posted: 10-20-03 11:38am
I have currently started exercising and am
starting to lose weight. I am about 80
pounds overweight. My husband and I
have also started talking about having a
baby. My question is should I continue
to lose weight and then get pregnant or
get pregnant now. I am concerned that
my skin will get all stretched out if I
lose weight then gain during the
pregnancy. Any suggestions?

Well, honestly it may prove to be quite
difficult to get pregnant if u are
overweight. However, from my experience
(i have 2 little ones) I have found that
it is easier to loose weight first and
then get pregnant. One u will increase
ur chances of becoming pregnant by loosing
weight and more importantly u will have an
easier pregnancy. When u are overweight
and are pregnant u increase ur odds of
diabetes and other complications.
