@thundergirl96 Currently 27 weeks, 290 pounds prior to pregnancy, currently 305 pounds.
I cannot boast about my OB enough. She is seriously one of the most kindest, compassionate people I’ve EVER met. Her nurses are just the same.
Because of my increased BMI I am required to deliver at a higher risk hospital 3 hours away (due to safety reasons and hospital policy)
But both my Primary OB and the high risk OB are extremely well at communicating back and fourth and reporting after every visit I have so each team can be aware of everything that’s going on.
While I am a high risk pregnancy, it’s because of reasons I had prior of pregnancy and not from getting pregnant and my doctor has done a wonderful job at keeping track of every single thing and staying on top of everything we need to.
I also had the same fears when I found out I was pregnant and they very quickly overtime went away with how I was treated and taken care of. I have zero worries about my health and my delivery because I know my little girl is in the right hands of my care team.
Remember to take care of yourself, your body, LISTEN to your body, advocate for yourself and your needs, And find the beauty in pregnancy
Don’t let your plus size body take away from enjoying pregnancy like me and a lot of other woman have. Us big girls deserve to love our pregnant bodies like everybody else
