Just did my 6 week postpartum. 2 hour glucose

I’m waiting to get my results for the 2 hour test and my A1c. I was doing well with diet controlled. I’m back to working out and working on losing weight but my fasting today was 100. What was your fasting glucose!

Just interested, as my experience was that there was zero postpartum assessment but I continued to have an issue with blood sugar for several months, so is this standard practice in the US?

separately i haven't had mine yet but do remember it's estimated that at least 50% of women who have GDM will go on to get type 2 diabetes. it's very hard to control no matter how much you do so don't be hard on yourself if it isn't the result you hoped for, it's very manageable and out of your hands

Is she here yet? Any signs!

I know people mean well but it’s getting to the point it’s getting me down, like everyone is pressuring me 😩I’m only 39+3 going to be worse when due date comes round 🤦‍♀️ just needed little rant, anyone else feel the same

First period since baby

I’ve got my first period back already and the bleeding is so heavy. This happened with my first but I just want to see if this has happened to anyone else too?

Pregnancy and anxiety

Has anyone else noticed a heightening of general anxiety since becoming pregnant? Feeling like I’ve started to loose my mind since becoming pregnant. I suffer from really bad sickness and still at 20 weeks I’m dependent on anti sickness meds. Don’t know if that’s playing a part but wondered if anyone else is feeling a little crazy? 😅😂 xx
