How do morbidly obese women get pregnant?

Answer:

The same way anyone else gets pregnant. Through sex with a male that is fertile. Other than that - in vitro fertilization. I know I was morbidly obese when I got pregnant and I have a healthy son and I had him without needing a c section. It was a long labor but he came out healthy. I know others who are obese who also get pregnant the natural way through sex.
