I am about where you are - 230/5'4". My OBGYN told me to try try try immediately, because she is afraid the longer I wait, the more likely that the Endo will grow back (I just had a lap & 6 mos of Lupron - YUCK). My Endocrinologist just put me on Metformin and wanted me to wait about 6 mos to see if I lost weight. However, she told me that if I wanted to go ahead and get pregnant, it'd be fine, they'd just want to monitor me v. closely for GD.
OF COURSE, this is assuming I can get pregnant. Which is not happening so easily. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
I asked my OBGYN about my weight and she said it may make it harder to conceive, but that she has patients that actually end up losing weight when they have the baby, and then losing weight when they breastfeed... so she said if I can get pregnant, then everything will work itself out. I'm going with her positive attitude. If I can just get pregnant, to heck with weight or whatever!
