Hi all. I just searched livejournal high and low trying to find *JUST* this community!!
I am in need of support as I try to conceive -- there are so many negative things out there about how I should lose all this weight before I try to conceive or I'm endangering myself and my baby. But I am a big ol' happy fat girl and I always have been/ plan to be. I would like to lose a little weight before I get pregnant because my sister had awful pre-eclampsia, but even typing that sentence fragment feels like I'm betraying myself. How do I deal? What advice can you give me?
Thank you and thank you for existing.
