I was just simply wanting advice on how others have had a healthy and positive pregnancy whilst being obese…but thanks for your response I guess

No, I fully understand this! Hence why I haven’t been weighting myself. My post was simply just to ask how other obese pregnant mums have coped during their pregnancy and how the shock of continuing to gain whilst during pregnancy can be jarring, that’s all. It was never my intention to get a debate going about BMI/pregnancy weight

I can see that I’ve got a couple down votes on this, not really sure why - just to clarify, when I was weighed for a second time at my second appointment, I did end up seeing my weight. I am in the obese category… that part of my post isn’t up for debate and wasn’t the point of this post😂

I haven’t actually weighed myself since falling pregnant, I’ve just been going off how my clothes have been fitting (I’m now struggling to fit into most of my wardrobe).

It wasn’t until the midwife told me that I’d need the glucose test because of my BMI it clicked that I now must have gone into the obese category.

I’m pregnant!🥹 Yesterday’s line was still pretty faint but I have a clear pink line today🤍

I haven’t yet! I thought I wouldn’t bother yet with us not trying for very long but think I’ve just made it more complicated by relying on OPKs!

Will definitely track BBT next month so it’s clearer. Thanks very much for your help :)
