Please don't procreate!!! Your clearly immature and gullible. Skinny women do not have increase chance of children that and "abnormal or weak". Just listen to that. How asinine is that? Skinny a better possibility of c-section? NO! The probability is the same as with any other weight group.

They're just scaring you. I was underweight, (5'8 and 124lbs), when I had my first child and she came out healthy. I just ate right, went to the doctor regularly, and exercised a little. My daughter was 7lbs, 10 ozs. Just do the right things and talk to your doctor. Overweight women who get pregnant have a higher chance of having eclampsia (high blood pressure) and developing gestational diabetes.

Ignore them!!! That is a load of rubbish!! It's not about how skinny you are or how much weight you have on you. It's about how wide your hips can open in order for your cervix to widen to give birth to a baby... Anyone can give birth unless they opt out of natural birth or there are complications. I know a very skinny woman and she has given natural birth to both of her kids (4 hour labour!).
Congratulations on your engagement and good luck!!

As long as you are not underweight and you're eating a well balanced diet you're fine. Best wishes and stop stressing!

You're fine. If you're eating right, your baby will be healthy. Ask your doctor if you are concerned.
