Fruit 🍇 and charcuterie boards make sure to warm up the meat

I am not sure! BUT if you have TikTok I'm sure they have incredible spread of options!!

Good luck mama 🥰

I was falsely diagnosed for a couple of weeks. Here is what I found helped. Triscuts original, quaker protein bars, fairlife milk, hard boiled eggs, string cheese, babybell. What helped was ensuring that there was good protein in the carbs that I was eating. Cottage cheese is great for this

Also there is a fantastic free app called Malama that helps you track food, carbs, logs and gives you insight and education

My go to snack has been apples and peanut butter! Just make sure to get a peanut butter that doesn’t have tons of sugar. Yasso frozen Greek yogurt also didn’t spike me!

Is 10am too early for a 6 year old birthday party?

It’s a pizza making party and that’s the time before the restaurant opens properly at 11:30.

Low percentile baby

Looking for positive stories only please 🙏 Has anyone been in a similar situation. Baby was 7.7th percentile on 1st growth scan and now 2.9th percentile. Estimated weight is 4.1lbs at 34 weeks. Tummy measurement bringing it down. Going for an additional scan tomorrow.

Would you be upset: no midwives showed up for their appointments and no one was told

I was supposed to have my 34 week appointment today where my anemia was going to be checked and she was going to follow up on my VBAC consultation that I been trying to get. I got to the GP and another expectant Mum advised me that no midwives have shown up and she had been waiting since 9:30 (it was 10:15) and the GP didn't know what was going on. So, we both rang maternity and it turns out that the midwife clinic was cancelled today (no illnesses or anything)... However, no one was told. I am a bit upset because I have concerns at the moment and have been waiting a few weeks to get a VBAC appointment. Just wondering if anyone else would be a bit upset at this, after travelling there especially if you are in a lot of pain? They said they can only apologize (which is true not their fault) and try to rebook as soon as they can.
