Hi glamachic, I am overweight but it's not the reason I have been classed as high risk, my ob never takes my weight as my blood work and blood pressure is perfect. Last time with the gestational diabetes I was watched to make sure I wasn't losing too much weight because of the restricted diet. I am a private patient so that could be why my bmi has never been an issue? I know there are few threads about public hospitals turning away woman with a bmi over 30.
