Does anybody else have a line like going across the belly like the line is forming with the belly where the abs use to be or is it just me?

It’s normal during pregnancy to have a darker line form vertically down the center of the belly. It’s called a linea nigra.

It's normal! Happened with my first. Haven't seen it with this pregnancy yet. And I'm 19 weeks 1 day

But I don’t have that I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like what your Ab line used to be. It’s forming the belly.

Is it horizontal?

No

Do you have an image for reference because I’m not sure exactly what you mean.

It’s probably just a bit of your posture making a line on your belly I have it too. I don’t really know how to explain it, but it’s nothing. It’s just a crease line

Oh ok thank you

I think we all have that from slouching. No need to be concern. It will go away

Yessss! I have that now and I'm 19 weeks. It's totally normal.

Does failing the 1hr glucose test mean gestational diabetes?

I was told at the lab my levels came up high. I have hypoglycemia and I notice I’m low on sugar levels when I get very sleepy and am rested. After drinking that orange thing, like 10-15min after I felt I was getting sleepy. I thought it was the crash after the loads of sugar from that drink (normal to hypoglycemia) but then they checked ny urine sample and sha said it was high. That they were waiting to run the testing on the blood sample after to be sure of more details they could share later. Does that mean I’m likely to have gestational diabetes? I’m nervous 🥺

NIPT

Has anyone gone for there nipt testing yet?

I just got my nipt results back and they all came back inconclusive because of low fetal fraction, I was 10 weeks 6 days when I got it done and there wasn’t enough fetal dna for any results.

Winging it

I feel like people out there have so many opinions about what they should and shouldn't be doing with their baby. Tummy time, screen time, floor time, reading, naps. Meanwhile I'm over here like no idea what I'm doing just trying to get through the day!! 👀 Who's with me?
