Gestational diabetes 🤦‍♀️

Anyone else been diagnosed? I had my glucose test and got the dreaded phone call today to say it came back abnormal. I wasn’t expecting it at all😑

Kicks at 20 weeks pregnant.

I’m 20 weeks pregnant today with my second baby, i haven’t really felt much movement in this pregnancy which is abit strange, i’ve felt the odd kick or flutter but that’s all is it normal to feel like this it. I do have a scan tomorrow to check everything is okay. last pregnancy i had scans but i’ve only had about 3 in this pregnancy as i went away for 2 week so my next one is tomorrow. just want to be reassured that everything is okay because i stress myself out all the time 😩 xx

Cramps at 5 weeks? Is that normal?

Hey girlies! I’m 5 weeks pregnant with my first and I’ve had cramps ever since I thought I was going to start my period, so it’s been around 4 weeks. The cramps can occasionally be painful. Perhaps once every two days I’ll have a cramp that lasts 10 seconds but it would be 8/10 in terms of pain, but other than that it would be between a 2/10 and a 4/10. It feels unusual because usually I’d only experience them for a week, but having them so often and for so long feels almost exhausting and draining, even though they’re not so painful. What has made me write this post is that fact that a) Google says women often times don’t experience symptoms at this stage. And b) I’ve been watching a few vlogs and I haven’t yet come across someone who has experienced cramps at this stage.. so please send across some advice or reassurance, it would be much appreciated 🥰
