Hi girls I’m 29 weeks and got GD from my latest tests. I want to start taking anti spike by glucose goddess to help but can’t find any info on whether I should or shouldn’t. Impossible to get the answer from my midwife who keep saying to ask at my next appt but that could be in a few weeks and I need to make some ch...
Anyone else feel unsatisfied after seeing midwife/consultant. Had a bad experience today currently 36w5d - went for a growth scan as baby was on the bigger side - was told babies abdomen has gotten small but femur is big. The US tech was questioning all her judgements and asked another tech to check her work. Before...
If I’m not worried about my baby’s health, being organised and itching to get closer to the due date, I’m spiralling thinking ‘oh my god what have I done/there’s not enough time/I’m going to be a rubbish mum, I should have waited’ over a very much wanted, planned for and prayed for baby 🙈
Had my 38 week appointment yesterday and not dilated at all and baby is still high up🥴. With my first pregnancy i was 1 cm dilated at this time I believe. I know it really doesn’t mean anything about how close I am to going into labor but it’s just so discouraging🥲
Does this line look ok for 6 weeks ? After mc I’m scared it looks blotchy
Was anyone else’s second midwife appointment completely useless? I’m so confused the midwife answered none of my questions, didn’t measure me, did not give me advice on anything, just made me aware of a bunch of bookings I have for the upcoming weeks which I had no idea of all together. Just feel like this time arou...
I went for my usual antenatal on Monday, midwife noticed my BP was high, was referred back to the hospital for monitoring. I ended up staying there for 2 days while having induction, pessary failed, balloon option failed, gel worked a little. Waters broke later. Dilation took forever, they advised I opt for Cesearia...
I had a GD test on Sunday and have just received a dietician appointment for Tuesday so guessing I probably have GD. I know they will tell me more at my appointment but would like to change my diet now and wondered what foods I should avoid or have more of? Any advise appreciated thank you
Had my consultant appointment today and was booked the date for my c section. I can’t wait 🥺

Anybody know what this is ? I’ve got it in a pregnancy bundle I was given I have no clue what it is.
has anyone requested their maternity & birth notes? if so how long did it take for you to get them or for anyone to get back to you?x
Wishful thinking or is there a line? Not due for around 6ish days.
Has anyone here developed gestational diabetes before the typical (weeks 24-28) timeline? How did you find out? I am in week 14 now and I’ve been really thirsty recently and can’t sleep without two full glasses of water by my bedside (pre-pregnancy I would maybe have half a glass, if that). I also go to the bathro...
