GLP-1s and trying for a sibling

My daughter was born in February of this year. I’ve been thinking about the timing of trying to conceive again, but my lack of weight loss is complicating things.

I had thyroid issues pre-pregnancy already, and got pregnant at a much higher weight than I wanted to. I then gained 45 lbs. I developed gestational diabetes and with that diagnosis I stopped gaining weight, but when I gave birth I was 234.8 lbs.

7 months later, I am still 234.8 lbs. I am working out 6 days a week and breastfeeding. I have an appointment with an endocrinologist to discuss my thyroid and problems losing weight. My primary care doctor said that I’m a good candidate for weight loss injections, based on my BMI alone.

I’m glad to take any help I can get, but I’m worried about how that medicine will affect my body in regards to pregnancy. I really don’t want to get pregnant at my current weight and gain even more.

Is it safe to start and stop when I get pregnant?

Can anyone who has taken these medicines during their child-bearing years describe their experience?
