I need to chill

After doing a bunch of reading and asking around, I have learned that the insurance company needs a five year history of being overweight. I know that my Doctor only has 3 years....Oh Dear God, please let this be OK. I can show them a lifetime of embarrassing chubby pictures. Everything else should be all set. Since I learned of this I haven't been able to sleep. I'm afraid of calling the insurance company too many times. This has to happen....with insurance. If it isn't covered with insurance, I can not do it. I just can't justify paying out of pocket when I have two beautiful babies who need so many costly things. Please Please Please Let it be covered.
