i had the glucose test today too! it doesnt taste all that bad- just like a sugary orange soda but man after 30 minutes my stomach was churning and my body was getting sweaty! I really hope it all ends well because if i am over I will have to do another test- this time for 3 hours instead of one!

Results at my appointment on friday!

Na i agree tasted ok, but i was the same felt sweaty and sickly afterwards

Dont know if thats a good thing or a bad thing?

All the best with your results Rowleypolie x

Welcome to 3rd tri Anna & Silaslove

And nice to meet you Stardust, I am really pleased that your pre-eclampsia symptoms seem to a false alarm. Long may it stay that way!

Shan, I had my 28 week check yesterday too and I am measuring spot on for dates

My blood pressure was also excellent (very good for me) and bubs heart beat nice and strong. Herbert is still lying transverse with bum suck under my ribs which is making it really difficult to turn around properly when I reverse the car or just bending over in general. He/she seems quite happy though, so thats the main thing.

I am so pleased to be 28 weeks today that, along with 24 weeks (and 30 & then 35 weeks) are my own little milestones that I like to reach.

[barasti]

thanks love!

I am feeling a little spun out that it's all about to get real. Each one of us is due to have a baby within the next 3 months.

WOW!!!

 

[minties]

I'm sneaking in for a cheeky hello...can't wait until I can come into 3rd tri for good!

 

[pichi]

Woo hoo! Officially I'm in 3rd tri now

Morning ladies I just had my first ever online grocery delivery. That's it am never going to Tesco's again. So easy Plus you spend less as you don't buy all the yummy cakes you walk past! Lots of things I forgot, but nothing essential.

Welcome to Third Tri with me Silas and Pichi, feels great doesn't it! Next milestone is next Wednesday (28 weeks, not sure why??) Then 30 and 37 I guess!!

Silas and Pichi, yesterday was 10th August meaning our babies were dues in exactly 3 months!!!!!

 

[pichi]

Argh that's mad

I can't wait to have my little bundle now

I'm just a bit panicy (maybe not the best word to use) about how big she is going to be. I hope she's not a 10lb'er! Lol
Going by mine and OHs birth weight I guessed her weight to be 6lb 11oz heh. I was 6lb6 and weirdly enough so was OH

ooh anna I always do my shopping online with asda, deffo better than carting all my shopping bags back on a bus haha!

first time you do it takes a while, but good thing is it saves everything you buy into "favourites" type thing... so next time you shop online you can scan through that and find the things u need loads easier its great... i would never go into a real supermarket again!

wish morissons would jump on the online shopping wagon though..their food is oh so much nicer than asda..boo!

Yay Anna

Well i had my 28 week check up and Gestational diabetes test today

Well i got a medical student who was left alone to take my blood pressure, check LO's heartbeat and measure my fundal height.

The MW didnt come into the room till afterwards. Was a bit stressful at first cause she used a hand held thingy to check heartbeat and couldnt find it at first and when she did it was quite faint (not as loud as last time but was a different machine)Gave me a heart attack. Anyway it was at 130bpm so that was good and steady.

My fundal height is 28cm, spot on apparently for 28 weeks and i get my GD test results tomorrow.

Did anyone else feel a bit sick after drinking it??

Bubs has also been moving heaps the last couple of days, esp last night and today. I could feel a lil arm or leg bulging out last night and she stayed there for a while but i was gently massaging her there and everytime i would stop, she would move as if to say "dont stop mum that was awesome" so id massage her there again and she would stop. This went on for about 20 or so mins was so cute

I wasnt told anything about the position of my baby either, is that normal?

 

[you&me]

My baby was breech at my specialist scan at 23+3...and yesterday at my midwife's appointment she has moved into an oblique position...so we are halfway there to getting her head down!!

Mine was also breech and now seems quite happy to stay transverse for the time being. Its not the most comfortable position for me especially as it likes to poke its bum out so that I have a wonky bump, the little humbug.

Shan my MW said to me yesterday that they are not really meant to say where the baby is anymore, but she still does as she can't see the harm. Ask at your next visit x

ooh glad baby is moving in the right direction!! hope i get the same news in a few weeks time at my next midwife visit lol!

 

[you&me]

My consultant told me not to worry too much about her position at the moment as they still have loads of room to move and turn...if she is breech at 37 weeks then they will attempt to turn her so I can try for my VBAC delivery.

I agree Cocobelle, not the most comfy of positions, I get hands pushing on my bladder, feet digging near under my ribs and a bum poking out mid belly which makes it all look wonky!! I just poke her back into place...but now she is a bit bigger she has started poking back

The breech position seems to be a girl thing I have noticed!!
