Can I get pregnant being overweight?
Yes you absolutely can. It is great that you want to loose weight first. Do try to loose as much as possible first though. I am only 5’1″ and got pregnant with my third when I was 198 lbs. My first two I was average weight, 144 and 152lbs. I didn’t think this would be too much different. It really makes a world of difference. I am having a lot of pelvic girdle problems and breathing problems from my chest being pushed up into my neck… well that is what it feels like at least, lol. I get indigestion A LOT worse this time and moving is just really hard. The blessing with being overweight when you get pregnant is that generally someone who is already overweight will not gain nearly as much as a smaller person. I gained 32 with my first and 35 with my second and I am two weeks away from delivery with this one and have only gained 20lbs. If I had the will power to do it before, I would have lost weight before attempting this pregnancy. I had to special order nursing bras, and finding mate
