Losing weight for my rainbow 🌈♥️
In July of 2019, my fiancé at the time (now my husband) and I decided to buckle down and try for a baby. I ended up getting pregnant that month (I took a million pregnancy tests of every brand and they all had a super faint line that never got darker) but ended up with a chemical pregnancy. Since then we have had no luck. (Not even a squinter on a test!)
I went to the doctor in July of 2020 since it had been a year of trying and had gotten nothing. I had been using opk’s and tracking my bbt and it was obvious I wasn’t ovulating. My doctor at the time looked me dead in the eyes and said “you will not conceive naturally if you weigh over 300lbs.” (He was the worst most uncompassionate person I’ve ever met and he’s no longer my doctor.) But a small part of me knew he was right. I wasn’t healthy. Even if I did get pregnant it would not be a healthy pregnancy and I knew I’d be considered high risk. So from July 2020 to now we put trying for a baby on hold and I have lost 110lbs. ❤️
We decided to start trying again this month and I got my first positive opk on the pregmate brand ❤️ I’m now 3DPO and nervously waiting to test!! The moral of the story is that I didn’t lose weight because some shit head doctor told me I had to. I did it so I could get healthy for me and my future son or daughter. I have an amazing feeling that this is our month and I can’t wait. I want you to know if you struggle with weight at all if I can do it, you can too!!! I’m sending all the baby dust to all the mamas wanting their baby or rainbow. I’m right there with you and rooting for you. You got this!!!
