Let's get some PAF dox in here...Oh hay newfag, if you're gonna sperg about Saints you're A-OK in my book.
(Sperg of my own: I don't think Ken Sr was raised LDS... he was born in 1964 to Merton Brown and Joan Hasselman, who were married in a Methodist church in West Haven, CT, in 1957 although as I said before, they both died in Utah. Note that Ken Sr. and Patricia Renshaw were married in SLC in 1990 - I assume they were sealed at that time, but that would make Ken Jr the first generation of the Brown family born in the covenant...)
I can't remember which LDS prophet said it, but the general guidance is "let your courtships be long and your engagement short," which is to say, date and socialize a lot so that once you find the "one" you can recognize it and move forward accordingly.They were married within months of starting their relationship, it seems like. I'm going to assume that's not unusual for Mormons? But if she was healthy then and they both wanted children, why didn't they start right away? I know there's plenty of valid reasons, but I also know when a woman really wants to be a mother, she prioritizes it. I kind of don't buy that she wants children that badly. The people I know who married in their 20s and always wanted children either had those children asap, tried and went for fertility treatments, or ended up adopting in their 30s. She keeps pushing it off like it's a boring bit of homework.
Also, I haven't read/listened to all the material so apologies if this was mentioned already but this kind of rapid weight gain makes me think she might have developed polycystic ovaries or any one of a number of hormone imbalances that would make pregnancy difficult or impossible.
