If you have been told that you need to lose weight to get pregnant,
you're probably feeling pretty crap right now. Your mind is going a
million miles a minute:
- frantically
searching for another way to try and lose weight,
- feeling so guilty
that you could have let yourself get to this point,
- swallowed by the
utter sadness that you can't do the one thing in the world that you
want most, to get pregnant.
You are in the right
place, my friend.
In this book, Nicola
breaks down the stigma that surrounds people who want to get pregnant
in fat bodies. In a mix of personal experience, supportive advice and
real research, she:
- dives deep into
what it means to get pregnant in a fat body,
- offers tools to
support you throughout the journey
- and guides you
through the twists and turns you may experience as you navigate
infertility in a bigger body.
Nicola Salmon is a
fat-positive and feminist fertility coach. She advocates for change
in how fat women are treated on their fertility journey and supports
fat women who are struggling to get pregnant to find peace with their
body, find their own version of health and finally escape the yo-yo
dieting cycle.
