this did help thanks. You think with all the advancment of technology. Getting someone prego. is a no brainer. SSBD. I will let u knw what my doc says and u are no where near obese. Where do they get there standards of weight. When I was 153 I was a size 7 and had hardly no body fat I was solid. Now 153 is almost obese what a shame. But we gotta stay positive

Keep me posted on what your doc says. I feel HUGE :\ I'm a size 10 and completely disporportioned...fit legs, not stomach tho but it could be the pcos that gives me a gut :\ Ugh I wish they would find a cure for feritlity. All my labs come back regular and I dont develop cysts...they can't explain why i'm not getting preggers..so frustrating.
