Leelee, everyone finds something to feel guilty about! Its mothers instinct kicking in already!

Very thin people can have loads of problems ttc etc as well. As long as you eat fairly healthily, have regular meals,...dont live on junk, coffee, alcohol or cigarettes,..generally you should be fine.

People still have problems whatever their weight, and even if they are super healthy.

See that's why I'm a big lady, I don't smoke and I don't drink, but I love my food and love to cook, and don't do enough exercise, and I find it hard to motivate myself do any.

I'm 5'9 and at the moment am 94kgs. When I got pregnant with Andrew I was 90kgs and went up to 125kgs (I got pre eclampsia so had major fluid retention) got down to 88kgs for my wedding 2 years ago and then got pregnant again and to be honest I have no idea how much I put on as I didn't weigh myself. I did WW last year (Have given up now due to money issues) when I started I was 104kgs. People can't believe that I weigh that much as I am quite tall.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

I get those kind of comments too Mummy_becks, about the height vs weight thing... guess we must hide it fairly well to the outside world, but I know its there! Mind you now that I've lost a couple of kgs it must be a bit more obvious as I've had a few comments.

I think the weight thing is often the first 'issue' pointed to in the whole TTC thing as it's the easiest thing to see and blame, even if it's not really a problem IYKWIM

I'll add my wee bit in too .... I'm 38 yo, 5'2" & 91kg at about 12wks preg with Ashlyn, I loose weight for the 1st couple of mths preg.  I was about 94kg at 9wks with Anastasia and now about 97-100 ish kg.  I had an early m/c before both successful pregnancies and one at 12wks last year.  I seem to put on about 4-5kg per preg and seem to have lost motivation with each one. 

At the moment I am not activly trying to reduce size, rather get my body and mental state back into shape, I have started seeing a naturopath/osteopath (also works with pregnant/ttc women and babies) and at the moment the chemicals in my body/head are all out of wack so we are working on that at the moment.  I took myself of AD's at christmas time and things are going good so far and am almost ready to look at councilling for abuse (childhood) to get the mental side of me ready.  I have in the past lost weight (like a yo-yo) since a teenager so am trying a different angle this time and would love to start my next pregnancy a bit smaller so I can watch my belly grow as baby does rather than wait till my belly just gets harder from being fuller.
