I'm 43 and childless. I can't bear the thought of not having a baby. I haven't actually been trying yet because I have just recently gotten involved in a serious relationship. Another problem, my doctor gave me such a hard time about my weight last time I saw him that I don't know how he will react if I ask him for fertility drugs. I don't know what my chances would be trying to conceive naturally, but from what I hear it doesn't sound good. Any advice?

How much overweight are you? I know it's definitely healthier to be closer to a healthy weight. But I myself just got pregnant before being able to lose weight from my first baby. Which is sad cause she's 15 months old. It's tough. Anyway, I am worried myself about being pregnant now while 40 + heavier than my 1st pregnancy. I haven't talked to a dr yet. Let us know what he says... but definitely if it's possible, try to have a child. It's the best thing ever! And although she's had problems, my sister was way way overweight when she had her 2nd child. Good luck!
