Glucose test!!

Hey guys so I took my 1hr glucose test yesterday haven’t gotten my results back yet but I’m hoping I don’t have gestational diabetes I haven’t had it in all 3 of my pregnancies but this last pregnancy has been so different from the rest with more problems and I’m just hoping and praying things are good because I’m already dealing with anemia, low platelets, blood pressure being low a lot of the times on top of other issues.

If you don’t pass the 1 hour they will go a 3 hour test then if you don’t pass it they will have you track you blood sugar for a month to see what that tells them.

The first exame they lost my samples unfortunately requested a second and was little hight they said do repeated and came normal after

Usually they say no news is good news, but you can always call them up to ask

I agree no news means good news normally after delivery it comes normal because I had the same experience in my second pregnancy. They do glucose tests and if it's still higher than normal then you will get a call otherwise don't worry. In my case it came normal after 3 months baby born

Have you been intimate with your partner yet?

How is everyone feeling? I was only intimate with my fiancé from last week as I was scared! For the record, I had an episiotomy and recovery was an absolute killer.

Another baby?

Anyone currently considering having a another baby or ttc?
Feb baby was my 3rd, so another would make 4. Am I crazy? Is 4 too many? We have a q7 so car wise is fine, the youngest two would have to share a room a couple year until we buy a 5 bed but thats not the end of the world I dont think!
Do you think im crazy 🤪

Lifting and carrying toddler

Second time mummas, did you/do you still carry your toddler whilst pregnant? I try avoid it as much as I can but my two year old still wants and needs to be carried sometimes. I do occasionally feel pains in my abdomen after I carry her, like an ache or sore pain which I’m hoping is just muscular. I know it’s not ideal but please tell me I’m not doing something bad or wrong!

Intrusive thoughts

I’m 38+5 today and I’m really struggling with intrusive thoughts… I just can’t imagine actually getting to the end of pregnancy and being able to take home a baby. I had 2 back to back miscarriages at 6 weeks before conceiving my current baby and maybe that has something to do with it. I have a planned c-section booked for Sunday and the closer it gets the worse the thoughts are getting and I’m terrified something will happen between now and then. I’m constantly analysing movements, or lack thereof, and I’m driving myself crazy. Has anyone experienced this?
