I am 5'6", 120 lbs, 23 years old, 20% body fat and I've been trying to concieve for 5 months. Everyone (my Mom, Husband, Grandpa and Mother-in-law) is telling me that I may need to gain weight to get pregnant. I have 27 day cycles and I am pretty sure that I am ovulating (OPK's and BBT), could I still need to gain weight? I work out 5 times a week for 45 minutes nothing extreme, I dont know what gaining weight (fat?) would do.
