This is true, but also a little over exaggerated. I have an obese aunt and she did very well with both her child births. But I do believe women should start taking care of themselves.

@princesskimbie This video implies there is more risk involved with obese women having children. No worries though, there are many cases where they have children problem free! :)

I think she is just talking about the increased risks involved, not that anyone overweight should not have a child.
