Glucose testing

Can anyone tell me their experiences with the glucose testing? Was it bad? Did you feel okay? Were you sick? Mines due soon, never had it on my first pregnancy but because I’m bang on the limit I need it on my second pregnancy 🙄 just not sure what to expect?

Getting called “big , massive & huge”

Hello lovlies , my best friend has been calling me massive since about week 17 and it’s not bothered me as it’s been to me but on Saturday we were at her engagement party and afew of her friends came up to me saying “ wow your not as big as I thought “ . I asked my friend if she was telling them I’m big and she said “ yeh Ahhaha I’m like Beth’s huge , I think you are “
She then followed by saying “I tell everyone your big lol “ I’ve been feeling very self conscious as I’ve already gained 3 stone and I do feel big and ugly and not like myself at all .
Has anyone else experienced this and found it hurtful or am I being sensitive?
Photo of me from her party on Saturday it’s my first pregnancy also if that makes a difference xx

How are we all feeling rn

I'm pregnant with baby no.2, my first turns 2 in September and I'm due with no.2 on October 10th. I'm at the point where I'd genuinely rather go through labour back to back 20 times over than do this last stretch of pregnancy 😭😂 anyone else feeling this way??

Possible irritable uterus and pre term labor at 33 weeks

Does anyone is suffering from this ?

I went to the hospital as I felt a stronger pain than usual. I have been dealing with a lot of braxton hicks (a lot) which are uncomfortable not painful and cramps. I have been talking with midwifes which all they say it's normal to keep doing my tasks etc. But I have a toddler and I think it was too much what I was doing. Because now after going to triage they kept me for 24hrs did CTGs to monitor baby, we do see contractions on the monitor but they are painless most of the time and baby seems happy still.
But I have been kept monitorized for the next days and the pre term labor tests they did all seem fine and they told me for 7 days birth is unlikely.
After this I have been feeling quite down emotional and just want to cry. But I am hopeful and I know if it needs to be born it will be alright.
Anyone in the same or similar situation ?
