Welcome Christina,

From what you’ve posted, it sounds like OASIS might be a good list for you to consider as well.  This list is for adoption.

Hi everyone,

I am here because I am a plus sized woman and I am having issues
conceiving. I have been married for 6 years, have been trying to conceive for that long, and am just beginning to understand what's going on in my body.  I have a short luteal phase, something which I found out after years of being misdiagnosed as having PCOS. I was told I had to lose weight and my body would be "normal" enough to conceive. Well, I'm 45lbs thinner and my body still isn't "normal". I learned that losing weight doesn't really help with a short luteal phase so I'm kind of back at square one. I really feel like I need support and a place to chat with people who are like me. I look forward to getting to know you.

Cheers,
Christina
