Bringing up TTC at Dr. Visit?

Question

We are in our third month of TTC. I have a regular check-up today, but I have not seen a doctor in a long time. The clinic I'm going to is for low-income and homeless people. I am also 320lbs and 5'6". Will the doctor use this against me and tell me I'm too fat or too poor to have a child? Just a little nervous!

Answer

They will probably tell you to lose weight. Even losing ten pounds can help get your ovulation on track. That's what mine said. They give everyone overweight the speech. They may also give you tips but don't expect any testing or medicines 3 months is not a long time most healthy couples take upto a year and Drs don't consider any testing etc til then

Answer

They may say you need to loose a little weight. Healthy you is healthy baby. And you should only have a baby is you can afford to properly care for them. Idk your situation and I'm NOT judging you. I'm just giving helpful advice. Also just say I'd by the way we're trying for a baby. 3 months isn't all that long for trying. If a doc is gonna help you have to be trying for over a year with no luck. The process is VERY expensive if you go that rout. Good luck and God bless

Answer

My regular OBGYN mentioned Laing weight, but that was it. They say it increases your chances. Good luck 💗👍🏻

Answer

They can't tell you you're to poor to afford a child. It's not their place and if they do say that.. Tell them you didn't ask for their opinion. They're a doctor not your mother.
