Plus Size Birth Blog

Welcome to the Plus Size Birth Blog, where we keep it real, evidence-based, and encouraging every step of the way.

Whether you’re just starting to think about getting pregnant, already expecting, or navigating postpartum life in a plus size body, you’ll find helpful guidance and heartfelt support here.

This blog exists because too many people in larger bodies are met with bias, misinformation, or silence when it comes to pregnancy. That needs to change. You’re part of that change just by being here. You deserve accurate information and compassionate care. You absolutely deserve to feel confident and connected throughout your pregnancy journey.

Inside, you’ll discover everything from practical tips, like how to find a size-friendly care provider or what to expect during an ultrasound, to honest conversations about body image, advocacy, and preparing for birth on your own terms.

You’ll also hear from other plus size parents who’ve walked this path before you, offering reassurance and insight that can only come from lived experience. There are fertility, pregnancy, and birth stories.

These aren’t just blog posts. They’re resources created with you in mind. They’re here to support you in feeling informed, uplifted, and unapologetically powerful in your body.

No scare tactics. No shame. Just a whole lot of support for one of the most important times in your life.

Start exploring, share what resonates, and remember: you are not alone, and your body is worthy of respect and celebration.

We’re so glad you’re here.
