Wasn't expecting to be diagnosed with diabetes late in pregnancy I suppose it's hard to eat healthy in pregnancy I feel like it's my fault because I've got diabetes and it's confirmed that it has caused my baby to be big
Hey everyone! Please can someone tell me how my line progression is looking so far from 8DPO pm to 10DPO am Thankyou🫶🏻🥹✨
I finish work next Tuesday, and I'm off for just over 3 weeks until my due date (22nd of October). Everyone is telling me I look quite low. Is this a sign? When I Google it, it is saying labour could be close. I just want at least two weeks' rest before she gets here 😂
Hey - I’m very confused about getting my MatB1 form as I thought I’d get it from my midwife at 20 weeks but feel a bit of an idiot as just dawned on me that actually we didn’t have an appointment at 20 weeks! I’ve booked an appointment with my doctor instead, is that right? So many things nobody explains how to do!
Are my eyes deceiving me or does anyone else see a faint line?
36+2 and I’ve just managed to hand express what I think is some colostrum. Is it normally this pale? The pics I’ve seen they’re bright yellow🤷🏼♀️
Anyone else with GD at breaking point with food 🙄 I'm on insulin 3 times a day and 1 at night my blood sugar never over 7.9 only when I have had more carbs than I should fasting 5.6 but all I want is to eat a bar of chocolate and whatever I like without stressing 😂 I've been really strict and stuck to the diet 3…
2 days post pink spotting I SWEAR there’s a faint line.
Im 7 weeks pregnant and booked my midwife appointment via badger notes 3 days back. Filled the self referral form. Since how long it takes to get a reply? Around which week ( its says after 10 weeks on the app) do we generally get an appointment in hampshire?? Replies are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have to track my blood sugar three times a day for the remaining weeks of my pregnancy. so to make this easier on myself I need to find the best app to help me remember when to check and a safe place to put all of my numbers.
Hi all, I failed my GTT on Monday and am starting the whole process tomorrow with hospital, bloods etc. my fasting reading was 4.something so that was fine, but my number after 2 hours was 10.6. Can anybody give it to me straight - am I probably going to struggle to manage with diet?? I know over 10 is really high....
Anyone else get diagnosed with GD? Any tips? Anyone know what this means for baby? Obviously counting carbs now and eliminating sugar from my diet but like I’m still freaked out.
So I’ve developed diabetes in my third trimester and baby is weighing well above average. I’m currently 34 weeks, I’ve got a growth scan again in two weeks to discuss options. Do people usually get induced early with this?? X
Hi all, I’m currently waiting confirmation I have GD. I’m just looking for some advice. This is my second pregnancy (didn’t have it in my first) and I’d love some tips on what you eat/how you manage it. Also what to expect for birth! I’m slightly panicked so any advice on tips would be fantastic. Thank you!!!
Has anyone ever flew while being pregnant, I’ll be 7 weeks when I come to fly. Any advice is welcome Thankyou x
Just found out I’m pregnant but I’m part of a dance team. I need to obviously leave the team but don’t want them knowing I’m pregnant yet. What’s the best possible way to tell them/what to say? I hate lying 😂
Does anyone find it so irritating when you call the GP for just a routine appointment - happy to wait & they say “there’s no pre bookable appointments”. What does that mean? I’m not gonna ring on the day because 1) it’s not needed and 2) you’ll tell me there’s no same day appointments either 🙃🙃🙃 seriously what are…
Has anyone changed from injections to insulin pump whilst pregnant? I have been offered a pump throughout but have found I managed diabetes really well with injections so didn’t feel the need to switch. I’m 19+4 and starting to face some insulin resistance so now considering the pump but wondered what other peoples ...
My eyes seriously. 7/8 days soo
I swear I see a line on every single one of these. These were all taken in the last 12 hours. All the lines I think I can see showed up within the time frame. They all look the same now as they did then.
