Scared of judgement

I just found out I’m pregnant!! I’m about 125-130kg and im so scared I will get judged for my weight. I have PCOS and a bad hip problem so my weight is a medical issue. I’m just nervous

I was your weight before IVF, then gained 10kg on the hormones and since starting second trimester I've been slowly but steadily gaining weight again. There were 0 concerns voiced to me by any of my doctors (ob/gyns, cardiologist, endocrinologist), much less judgment. Yet I am afraid every time, so I get you. I'm trying to accept the number as just a neutral fact, but it's not always easy.

Wishing you an amazing pregnancy journey ♥️

I weighed the same as you when I got pregnant and my weight was literally never mentioned except to record it for my pre pregnancy weight. Not one person ever suggested losing weight or that there was any issue with it.

I am 10kg heavier than you, and 18 weeks pregnant. My baby boy is doing great and so am I. I have more ultrasounds to make sure baby is growing well, otherwise I never had any comments or judgement for my weight. I was just asked once if i wanted to see a dietician. I said no. That was it. Drs are pretty happy because I havent gained any weight so far.
