Gestational diabetes

I failed my 3 hour glucose test and feeling a little bummed and defeated! My A1C was great so it feels weird. I’m really motivated in terms of diet and exercise, and I only have 2 months to go, but any words of advice or encouragement? Is anyone else dealing with this?

Is this a bump?

I feel like I am being super stupid here.. I want to say it’s a bump but I’m only 13 weeks (today) with my first baby so surely it’s too soon for me to be showing? I’m super excited at the thought of a bump so I don’t know if I’m just getting excited over bloat or something..

TMI but…..

Im 4 weeks pp from my c-section and I am so horny! I know I can’t have penetration until at least 6 weeks and I don’t plan to before that. I was debating other types of stimulation but I am also terrified that any kind will hurt soo badly and I don’t want to mess up my recovery. Anyone else have this problem? What did you do to find relief?

Epidural and Csections

Hi, I've just found out at 35 weeks that he is breech and I'm looking for people's opinions on C sections and epidurals. These are the only two things I didn't want 😩that I now might have to get.
I genuinely don't think I'm gonna let them come near me with that epidural needle.

C section

I've opted for a c section due to baby measuring on 94th percentile, being breech and having some medical complications. They've said it will be next Friday, I'm totally laid back so not worried. However, I'm just wondering if there's anything I need to consider? Any essentials that people would recommend for hospital bags etc? Any help appreciated!

Do you need certain gel for a doppler machine?

Snagged an amazing deal on Vinted and got a doppler for £3, just wondering if you need certain gel for it?
