Week 28

Well, we moved. It was a stressful month.

Thankfully we passed the Glucose test as I mentioned.

I am still keeping these blogs fairly short ish and bi-weekly at the moment because my head’s definitely not in the game with being here.

We have started unboxing and even started setting up the “baby corner” so to speak. Very cute. Very in need of organising. VERY TIRED.

So leg cramps at night are a murder, waking up every 2 hours to pee also a murder. Pelvic girdle pain, much worse considering we have been moving. We will get there eventually.

I hate unpacking… I am the “I’m tired of this grandpa” meme right now.

Other than those grumbles all is ok. Got another midwife appointment soon and a scan booked for later in the week. The scans always give me anxiety on turbo speed but what’s new.

Glucose Tolerance Test

It has to be one of the nastiest drinks ever. Why is it so thick? And vile tasting?

It gives such bad nausea too.

Anyway… it was the hour long wait and holding down the urge to vomit that had me most tense during the test. No way do I want to repeat it.

Anyway… by some miracle I passed, but I don’t feel diabetic if that even makes sense. However, the consultant seems to think from reading between the lines it is inevitable that I will get it again.

I get more scans this pregnancy again because kiddo was in the 99th percentile. Honestly had no idea she was a 99er. I just thought meh its a big baby, nope she was a biiiiiig baby. She was already measuring big at this stage though which this one isn’t so I may be able to hold the ‘betes at bay a little longer with any luck.

Happy valentines day everyone.
