    Plus size pregnancy

    @thundergirl96 I was 260 at the start of my pregnancy (now 27 weeks) and my doctors have been great with my appointments so far. Nobody has mentioned my specific weight or BMI. My doctor was answering some of my questions and did say something along the lines of, “and at your size…” but he was...

    TTC and had first fertility appointment. What a shit show

    Sorry, a bit of a rant lol. I get so heated with the BMI bullshit and they act like they can’t help anyone with pcos. It’s ridiculous.

    Nursery glider chair

    @aniska I got a lazyboy recliner that I love! They hold their value so in the future I’ll move it to the living room or resell it.

    TTC and had first fertility appointment. What a shit show

    @pollinnna230 I wish I had words of encouragement when it comes to the system, because it’s fucked. It fucked me over and it was a veryyy stressful year for me TTC and working with a fertility clinic. However, if you can rise above the people being stupid, and approach it scientifically...

    Venting…

    I used the brand on Amazon that is easy@home, aka Premom, and they even have an app a lot of women use. I found the app kind of lame, and I just taped my strips on paper to track my cycles lol.

    @poptart1919 Yes this! Buy the cheap ovulation strips and use them at least twice a day starting at cycle day 10 and until you can see a peak. 12-24 hours after you see a peak strip (LH surge) is when your body actually releases the egg, but if you’re having sex daily around your ovulation (but...

    Trying for a baby while being plus size

    @marko959 Ugh! That is so frustrating. I hope you know that weight alone is not at all a reason why people have trouble conceiving. Doctors can be so hard to work with ☹️ Have you tried using ovulation strips to make sure you’re having sex at optimal times? I would absolutely start there, and...

    TTC

    @dm1057 It can, but I tried tracking my temp for 4 months and it was really difficult to predict ovulation, rather I could tell AFTER I had ovulated. So I would really be worried about using the temp method with irregular cycles. I do not have pcos and my cycles were pretty regular and I still...

    TTC

    @aries11 The apps literally calculate the halfway point between periods to tell you when you’re ovulating. This is inaccurate especially when you have irregular periods and I highly recommend using the ovulation test strips at home. It’s super easy and you gain such valuable information!

    Apps say belly might start to feel firm (9W), but doesn’t with the extra fluff

    @onlyway019 Me too with around 19/20 weeks started feeling firmer on top. Mine also feels firmer and bigger at night vs. the morning.
