Just wanted to follow up on the recent "pregnant AND fat" submission. Really grinds my gears that there are doctors out there who advise larger women against becoming pregnant and that there are people out there who feel larger women's pregnancies are somehow less "special." A lady friend of mine was about 400 pounds when she gave birth to her son three and a half years ago. Easily one of the best things to ever happen to her. Love this blog, by the way. : )
