I put on some weight in the beginning but once I realized it, I worked on losing weight and felt like my fertility improved from losing weight. I also found counting calories was something I could control during a difficult time that was not totally in my control, I didn't go crazy but I liked having something positive to focus on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-weight-gain#post-2298299 Tue, 22 Sep 2015 12:52:31 +0000 ms.line 2298299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained about 8-10 pounds while TTC, without any super obvious cause (kept exercising, wasn't bingeing, etc). I was also put on levothyroxine. I'm guessing it was just slow stress eating? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ttc-weight-gain#post-2298266 Tue, 22 Sep 2015 12:36:16 +0000 LoveHope 2298266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is my 17th cycle of ttc baby #1 and I haven't gone the medical route yet. I've seen an RE and know what my options are but wanted to try a few more natural cycles out until deciding to go the medical route. One thing I've been noticing lately is that I've been putting on a few pounds and can't understand why. I'm on Levothyroxine for my thyroid which seems to be balanced for now. Any of you ladies gain weight from the moment you began ttc to the present time? </p>
