Feeling a Little Overwhelmed

So in the last 24 hours I've found out baby is footling breech, I'm anemic and they found very high levels of glucose in my urine (gtt now booked for Thurs). Oh and my HG seems to have returned with a vengeance. I'm not sure the point in the post, other than I feel a little sorry for myself/overwhelmed and most people I've told have said 'ohhh GD is nothing' or 'theres loads of time for baby to turn'

Bless you, that sounds like a LOT xx sending love

That’s a lot to deal with in 24 hours!!
I had really similar 2 weeks ago. Had a scan for my placenta location and after being told it wouldn’t move and my section would be 37 weeks, it had! Found out baby was footling breech (has now been transverse for a while) and there was glucose in my urine! Because I had a gtt 5 weeks before & was seeing my midwife 2 days later, they waited for another urine test before scheduling another. That came back clear and has been clear since. They blamed the honey nut cornflakes I’d had that morning! So a shockingly similar day to you!x

Thank you so much ladies. that is weirdly similar! I'd never heard of footling breech before yesterday and they absolutely put the fear of God in me 🤦🏻‍♀️.

Early scan

Heyy all

Just wondering if anyone can tell me if an early scan is worth it? Thinking about booking one for 8 weeks but £80 to see what might just be a blob doesn’t seem worth it?!

When did everyone get their nhs scans ? Were u closer to 12 or 14 weeks?

Newborns eye

My boy is 2 weeks today and has had this gunky, swollen eye for about 10 days. We bathe it constantly but it seems to be more red and swollen the past 4.

Midwife’s are aware and said to contact a GP, but others have said to continue to bathe it. Should I just contact GP?

Advice wanted!

Hi! I'm 25weeks! I just need some advice if possible, So I was out walking yesterday, I won't lie I felt like I was sitting more then I was actually walking, I kept feeling like the baby was sitting very low on my stomach and it was discomforting, is this even normal? Or does anyone know how to release the tension?

5 weeks PP and breasts still leaking ?!

Anyone got any advice please ?
I’ve never let my boys go near my breasts and I don’t touch them but I’m still leaking!! They just don’t seem to want to dry up? I do go a day or two of nothing then suddenly they’re pouring again (one more than another) anyone got any magic fix?
