Plus Size Pregnancy**

Some would have you think that fat women are unable to conceive a child. This is completely untrue as these BBW Birth Stories will atest. While it is true that large women are more at risk for certain complications during pregnancy, most do not experience anything any more unusual than a regular size woman.

If you are a plus size woman who wishes to become pregnant it is important to find a size-friendly health care provider. Pregnant or not, it is important to find a doctor who will look beyond the weight issue and treat your symptoms the same as he or she would for any regular size patient. Many larger people delay seeking medical attention because of non-fat friendly health care providers who blame too many problems on a person's weight and immediately give the standard lecture and prescribe yet another diet.

The Fat-Friendly Health Providers List is a good place to begin your search. This is a list of providers others are recommending because they have been found to be fat-friendly. If you need to look further or need help converting your own favorite practioner into a more fat-friendly provider, How to Choose a Fat-friendly Doctor and other Medical Suggestions and the NAAFA brochure titled "Declaration of Health Rights for Fat People" will be helpful.

If you are a plus size woman who is pregnant or considering becoming pregnant the Internet has many resources for you. Plus-Size-Pregnancy.org is full of wonderful advice. Don't miss it!

If you are interested in connecting with other plus size women the Plus Size & Pregnancy Discussion is a website you will want to visit. You are not alone. This is a busy discussion board where you're sure to find another in your exact situation.
