Diabetes test

I’ve got my diabetes test on Monday and I’m feeling very nervous. What are other peoples experiences with it ? Do they take much blood ? I’m worried after not eating all morning I’ll faint when they take my blood 🫢 and how long does it take to get the test results back ?

Thanks :)

Why do people take multiple pregnancy tests?

I took one in the afternoon then one first thing the next morning to double check and that was it. I see people doing loads of tests during the early weeks and just curious as to why?

Anxiety!

I'm 16 weeks now.. The last we checked the baby and the heartbeat was in my 12th week scan. I was a bit relieved of the nausea now and also not feeling any movements in my tummy. This is my first pregnancy and I'm feeling anxious. How are you first time mothers doing through the early second trimester?!?

How would you react if you told a co-worker your pregnant and they say congrats.. are you keeping it?

Hayfever tablets in pregnancy

Hi, just curious if anyone else has had the same issue, i went to a pharmacy today to try buy loratadine for hayfever/allergies. But got refused the sale due to pregnancy and getting told that no hayfever tablet is safe for pregnancy and they will not provide the tablet unless prescribed. It has really confused me as NHS website says it is safe etc.
