You shouldn’t get pregnant Bc you are overweight ....

Tiffany

I want to shed some light on this.... my husband and I have been ttc for 2 years now with no luck. I was seeing a doctor who basically told me I don’t need to get pregnant until I lose a lot of weight. I am a bit overweight and fully aware I could stand to lose some, however I don’t feel like I should be treated different than any other woman who desires to have a precious little baby. For the past two years I have had appointment after appointment of this doctor offering me no real help, solution, advice, solutions to the problem or anything. I left every appointment in tears, feeling torn down and like I had reached a dead end. I fully believe she was being prejudiced against me because I am not skinny. Today I went back to the OBGYN and I saw a different doctor. Today I left so very happy and thankful. This doctor was genuine, and offered so many different things to try and routes to achieve my goal of ttc. He even put in an order for my husband to be tested ( just to cover all the bases). This made a world of difference!! I left with so much hope and happiness, feeling like my new doctor and I were truly being proactive in trying to get me pregnant. I am posting all of this to say ladies, if you are experiencing the same thing, CHANGE YOUR DOCTOR. We need to be seeing kind human beings, doctors who have compassion, and an eagerness to truly help us reach our goals. I look forward to the next few months and trying these new things. Please please if you are being belittled or if there is prejudice against you by the doctor you are seeing switch doctors. There are good doctors out there who care and want to help you get your precious baby miracle!!
