Glucose Test

My results seem like my number is high, 199. Anyone else have similar results? Guessing the 3 hour test is next…

Yes it will be that’s how mine was but I passed the second. Best advice cut out sugar and be sure to fast for more than 8 hours 12 if you can before next test FOR SURE. I cut out sugar best I could for the days leading up to the 3 hour test and ate a healthy diet and my result went back to normal range

Stay moving around, it helps lower blood sugar if your active

You don’t want to try to “fake the test”. I agree with not having sugar before the test but if you do have GD you do need to find out to keep the baby safe and healthy

When I did my early glucose test at 12 weeks, I had 175 for my one hour. I did the 3 hour the following week and passed it. It’s not as bad as everyone says it is. You will have to fast nothing after midnight until after you are done with the testing. They will let you have a little bit of water if you need it. But, I just brought things to keep me busy while I waited between blood draws. The night before they suggested to not eat a carby meal. Because it will not make you feel good during the day doing the testing. I’m doing another 3 hour on 28weeks. Sometimes our bodies just don’t process that sugar in the first hour. Some people need a little longer.

Confused Over Test Result

My heads pretty blagged about this atm. I’ve had spotting & some cramping but of the 2 tests I’d have expected the clear blue one to be most accurate. Any advice?

Boy or girl?

I’ve just discovered the nub theory and this is my 4th baby. Anyone take a guess?

SPPH (secondary postpartum haemorrhage) due to retained placenta -D&C?

Looking to see if anyone else has experienced this? Currently trying to pass retained tissue ( 4 weeks pp) and finding every day so exhausting just constantly waiting and checking my bleeding. I stopped bleeding on week 2.5/3 then bleeding picked up last Saturday and I haemorrhaged on Thursday morning with a rush to hospital. Everyday since I’m waking up scared I’ll be bleeding out. Worried to go toilet to check, I’m not convinced I’ll be passing it naturally and I’m worried I’ll need a D&C… has anyone had this? My retained tissue is 2cm so they said it’s small but I have no signs of passing it or blood changing colour to show slowing down.

39 weeks pregnant FTM

39 weeks baby hasn’t come yet and I am just full of anxiety. I am trying to relax. I am trying to chill, but I can’t chill. I do not want to be induced. I would love to have her natural. Issue is I am tight down there and petite and baby is measuring big like the head especially. I know that measurements can be off. But I have photos! And she is a chunk. This is so unpredictable. How do I just put my faith forward and trust in God and how do I let go of this anxiety? I am doing fine and then boom it hits me and I want to ball my eyes out. I am trying to treat myself and do little things but driving or doing anything is so hard now and I’m so huge and uncomfortable …I’m at my breaking point 😭
