High risk pregnancy

Hey everyone.

So I’ve just had my 25 week midwife appointment and my heads reeling a bit.

I’m finding that as my pregnancy goes on I’m getting increasingly anxious about my type one diabetes and the constant reminder that I am high risk is really getting to me.

Generally my sugars have been controlled with a few issues over a change in insulin over the last two weeks but honestly the pressure of not only being pregnant but being “high risk” is giving me constant panic attacks.

Now been told to look out for movement as much as possible and it’s sending me through a loop!

Sorry for the rant, guess I just want to speak to like minded people 🥰🥰

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
