Im 3 months pregnant and delighted - this is my first pregnancy so am obviously very knew to this all. I have never spoken to my GP and the doctors at my local neo-natal unit about my weight and he has never brought it up so there is no reason to worry...its just that i read an article which i wish i could find saying that being overweight during pregnancy is not a good thing....thing is that i am not over-over weight just a little......am i being paranoid over nothing? are there any women out there that had a pregnancy and whom were over-weight?? Thanks for all informtaion - Natsxoxo clh 01-19-2005 @ 10:30 AM                           reply Member Joined: Jan 2005 Talking to your GP and the neo-natal unit should happily put your mind at ease - yahasra 05-18-2005 @ 11:52 AM                           reply Member Joined: Nov 2004 is it harder to get pregnant when overweight does anyone have any comments on that or experience?? minesh 05-20-2005 @ 11:06 AM                           reply Member Joined: Mar 2005 do you think i should be worried if my wife is preganant and overweight or am i just being paranoid!? hanini 05-23-2005 @ 12:31 PM                           reply Member Joined: May 2005 i hear overweight does effect pregnacy. im working very hard to loose weight and infact im taking xenical which i found to work wonders! jrussels 03-14-2006 @ 1:54 PM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2005 i think that being overweight and pregnancy are not really related i mean my wife became pregnant when she was at her most overweight. Incidentally she lost a lot of weight after the delivery of our son.
