Loosing a little weight here and joining curves has helped me conceive after only four short months. I am currently 5 weeks 1 day pregnant and so excited. Please tell me your stories!

    To those struggling to get pregnant try not to obsess over it. It took me a year to get pregnant the first time. Sometimes it just takes a while.

    Congratulations!!!

    I lost 48 lbs last year, and got pregnant with #5 ;) Weight loss is a HUGE motivator for baby making... Ha ha!

    Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months!

    (by the way, baby #5 was born this past May 25th and I'm down 52 lbs)

    Congrats! Enjoy it - I loved being pregnant!

    I lost about 45lbs for my wedding in 2008, tried for a baby after our honeymoon, and got pregnant the first month trying!

    Put on a bit of weight, lost it all, tried for no. 2 when our son was 1, it took 3 months.

    Our son was 3 in June and our daughter was 1 in May. I'm now thinner than when i got married and getting thinner every week!

    i'd like to try for no. 3 next year!

    I lost 6lbs and then I was pregnant by accident and had our son March 15, 2012. LOL Not exactly what you mean, but the exercise seemed to work in that way. :] So happy for you! <3

    Congratulations! And the weight loss will lower your risk of certain complications, too, so it's a double bonus!

    Congrats to you!!! I'm 15 wks pregnant and initially it was a struggle to stay on MFP because I was so exhausted the first trimester, but try to stick with it. There is a pregnancy forum on here for all the preggo ladies :)http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/1920-fit-fabulous-pregnant-
