According to Metro a mother who was told she was too fat to conceive naturally has spoken of her joy after losing five stone and giving birth to a healthy baby girl.
Kerry McKenna, 33, of Long Eaton, tried and failed to have a child with husband Mike, 34, over a two-year period.
Doctors warned her she was too overweight to give birth naturally as she weighed 16st 11lbs and wore size 20 clothes.
But determined Kerry decided to battle the bulge and shed five stone.
She fell pregnant in April last year and on February 2 the couple had baby Abigail at Nottingham’s Queen’s Medical Centre.
Kerry said: ‘You don’t want to be a big person so there’s always something in your mind saying you really should lose weight.
But when the doctor said my chances of pregnancy were increased if I lost weight, that gave me the motivation to stop putting it off.
‘There wasn’t even any inkling of the possibility of falling pregnant until I’d lost the weight
She added: ‘Abigail is perfect. I feel really blessed that we have her, our dream to have a family has come true.’
I have seen pple bigger than this and they still have children
