Joeve by the sounds of it they can! I'm over their BMI cut off(well GP thinks I am, he has to call the hospital), even though I haven't had any weight related complications during either of our children's pregnancies, I haven't had GD, other than my labours being induced they were normal and fuss free... I don't see the issue?

Here I was thinking getting pregnant and staying pregnant would be 99% of the battle it looks like labour an delivery will be stressful a well. He's basically said I would have to travel to Brisbane at 38 weeks and stay there until I birth which means I would be birthing alone because there's no way my DH or our kids can spend 3+ weeks away from work/school.

This has really upset me, everyone is "oh it will be ok" but it has me seriously worried.
