Due Date Club April 2004:what to do?
2003-09-24
Name: need help



hello friends, pardon my intrusion. i am not a member of this board but i need all of your suggestions as i am in a big dilemma now. i am a 24 year old female. we have been trying to get pregnant since a while but i could not as i am not ovulating. doctor wants to put me on clomid. she said it makes more than one egg to be released in a month so the chances of twins or triplets is more! i am really worried now because i am underweight already. my height is 5'4\"; and weight is 94 pounds. i am already very much worried to get pregnant even with one child because of my weight. i always worry that i may not have a healthy baby or my baby would end up premature. with all these worries in mind, i cant even dare to think of having twins or triplets. what should i do now? is it ok if an underweight girl gets pregnant with twins? i love kids very much and very upset that i have to face such a situation. i know having twins is double joy but because of my weight i am not able to think anything now. please help me. any suggestion is welcome. thanks friends in advance.

Hey i was having irregular cycles and when i tried to become pregnant , the doc put me on clomid too.i concieved with only one baby.But then i had a miscarriage and again after a year i took clomid and became pregnant again now and this time also we saw only one in my ultrasound.though the doctors say the chances of having more than one is high it all depends..so don't worry about this.If you are underweight it does not mean that your kids will not be healthy.

I do know a lady who like u was underweight and was pregnant with twins. She is now doing fine with her 2 year old twin girls :-) So pls dont worry. Try to consult a dietician and check out whether u need to make any serious change in your diet. Start taking the prenatal vitamin tabs and believe in God. I am sure everything will be fine.

Ours prayers will be there for you.

The lady I was telling about is a non-veg but she said there is nothing to worry about being a veg while u are pregnant. Anyway if you live in US check in your library for 'What to expect when you are expecting'. This book has a detailed write up on vegetarian diet when you are planning for a baby. It also says you need to take an extra intake of calcium and some vitamins. Check for that book and also try to consult a good dietician.

I dont know whether this answer was helpful but will keep u posted if I hear anything more that will be useful for you.

Take care
