    You had best ask your dr, the healthier you are before the pregnancy the better it is for you and the better your chances at conception and a healthy pregnancy, so check with your dr.

    You know you really don't have much extra weight at all. In terms of BMI you're what..... a couple of lbs over the healthy range? If at all? You're the same weight I was at the start of both pregnancies and there were no problems with that. I did put on a "lot" of weight esp with the second one but that had to do with eating like a piggy rather than my weight at the outset :o but I lost it relatively easily afterwards. As Thaed says... consult a doc if in doubt.
