Hi, I think if you are carrying a baby it is not a good idea to think in this direction. Be positive and now think about what you can do to have a safe delivery and a healthy baby. Talk to your doctor and ask him what is the ideal weight that you should have during your pregnancy. Or how much weight gain is good in your case and follow all the tips that he shares with you. He will first of all get your BMI to categorise whether you are overweight or obese. I am sharing a link with you, please go through it. It should help you in understanding things a great deal. http://www.whattoexpect.com/pregnancy/overweight/
