Tested for GD

Today I tested for GD and I have now been referred to the hospital for further appointments. The appointment which has come through shows that it’ll be a group session. Has anyone been to anything similar and know what to expect?

I was referred also it was one group session where they explain everything they then give you a sugar testing kit and ask you to monitor your sugars and it will be transferred to an app. if you can control your sugars by diet then they just keep a check otherwise if your sugers are high you will be medicated.
After the group session you will be under a consultant for the rest of your pregnancy.
in the group they explain why it happens and what it can affect.

Baby movements

So I’m now officially 22 weeks pregnant with baby number 2 and I’m still yet to feel him move. I had my 20 week scan not last week but the week before and everything seemed fine but have a repeat scan tomorrow due to not getting a proper measurement of his face. I’ve been told I have an anterior placenta too. Should I start getting worried yet ?? With my first baby my placenta was at the back and I felt him move around the 20 week mark. I’m just really paranoid as I have fertility issues as it is and have had miscarriages in the past and I’m classed as a high risk pregnancy with this one as I have strep B and I had gestational hypertension and pre eclampsia with my first baby so I’m on shared care with this pregnancy and I’m also on aspirin too which was prescribed by the hospital to take to prevent with this pregnancy.

Is everyone just done now and ready for baby or not there yet?

If you’ve had enough and ready how far along are you?

I’m 37 weeks and starting to get more uncomfortable but enjoying it generally not at the end of my tether yet but I fear it may be just around the corner according to everyone else? Haha
