Don't be scared, it's just about learning what to eat and what to avoid and knowing that sometimes, no matter you do, you cant bring your levels down with diet alone, so you will need medication to help.

What meals have you eaten today which have caused you to go over? X

so basically all carbs which is what causes our bloods to spike. You need to be having a lot less carbs and a lot more protein and veggies etc :)

Try to limit your portion size of carbs to 50g of carb per meal. So supernoodles have 56g of carbs per packet for example

The key to it is little and often, you need to aim for 3 meals & 3 snacks a day lovely,
Lots of protein foods, little to no sugar and avoid to many carbs, make simple changes like white bread for whole meal, brown pasta etc xx

Second what the other ladies have said, deffo swap for whole meal and stick to meals and snacks. I try to aim to having carbs as 1/4 of my plate. Then the rest filled with protein and veg and dairy. Try to avoid lots of processed foods as they have hidden sugars in them. When you have a snack, make sure it has less than 15g of carb in it. X

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Movements

I’m 28 weeks tomorrow. Yesterday I had loads and loads of movements but today I have only felt small flutters and a couple of kicks throughout the day. I get so confused as some people say they don’t have a pattern but others say they do. We have a Doppler so used it this evening and could hear the heartbeat and then moving but does anyone else get quieter days of movement than others? I am seeing my midwife tomorrow so will check but just find myself getting anxious about it and don’t know when to get checked. I know they encourage it but last time as soon as I got to triage baby started moving loads!
