Got my GTT results back, was 8.1 so borderline, as I'm already 38 weeks, not measuring big and for the first time in 3 months had no glucose they are doing nothing. Do you think I should be concerned, I'm 4/5th engaged though :)
 
No I wouldn't worry Sea, if you're not measuring big there's no need to do anything. Maybe just be careful of your sugar intake, particularly during labour to prevent the baby's blood sugar from dropping after birth when it's sugar source (you) is disconnected. Did they say they would monitor blood sugars during labour or how far overdue they'll let you go? xxx
 
No, they didn't say anything, my midwife left whilst off sick so I've never seen the same one more than once, next appointment is on my due date so at least I can ask then x

Call her if you're worried fluffy - for your own piece of mind of nothing else. I know what you mean about movements around the middle. Mine seem to be lower of late (used to be right up by my ribs) - I just assume its baby getting lower ready for the great escape (it was still head-down at my scan on Monday so don't think its turned).

Vickie - I missed the photo - where do I look?

On the left as you go in there is a notice board with thank you cards on. There is one that has swung open that has a little boy in a blue sleepsuit and an ng tube in his nose - that's Maff.

He seems to have settled down today and later yesterday but there is an awful lot of bumping around the middle.

I also feel (and sorry for TMI) bubbling down below like im leaking but im not !!

I don't think so. If it was borderline and you are so near the end I am sure it's fine x
 
I will look next time Vick - which will be my induction unless the little one has other ideas!

I have just done the last thing on my to-do list and I'm outta here - MATERNITY LEAVE HERE I COME!

(Christmas party first though!)

Yey for maternity leave!! :yipee:

been for 36 week mw appt, FH is 40!! Ollie is 3/5 engaged and still head down :) , my bp is slightly higher than normal - 130/84 ( but I am poorly ) , his hb is 150bpm, had +1 protein in my sample so they've sent it off. Back at home and still feeling pants!! I hate colds!!

hx
 
It feels weird having all this time on my hands. I feel like I should be doing all my chores today but then I remember I have next week for that! Took me 2 hours to do a 15 mile trip this morning home from the Christmas party - snow is bad enough but its the idiot drivers that make it worse! Anyway, home now and snuggling up with hubby for a lazy afternoon and evening. Have washed my last lot of baby clothes too - and already lost a sock, not a good start! Just the cot to contruct and baby's bag to pack and we're ready: T minus 12 days!

Hope the protein is nothing h and I'm sure the BP is just because you're feeling under the weather. How are you feeling now? FH 40 and 3/5 engaged eh? I wonder if Ollie will make an early appearance?! I am sure my bump has dropped - it pretty much rests on my thighs now - how attractive!

mine too - and my spd feels worse! I am forced to a lazy day being poorly - no sleep last night - every time I tried I woke up with a coughing fit and it really hurts - I fear I may be graduating to the dreaded chest infection - have started the antibiotics - not sure if I should call the mw?

gosh I wish I was as organised as you Lou!!

hx
 
Sounds like you could do with something hun, no point in making yourself worse if the antibiotics will help. Worth letting the MW know if they don't.

Did I recall you had a flu jab? Was just wondering because of the news article today about people not having it when they should e.g. pregnant woman. I haven't been offered one but wonder whether its worth trying to arrange it at this late stage.

I think something in my head told me I had to get organised - good job considering my intended maternity leave halved when they gave me my induction date!

I did have the flu jab - I normally get a letter as I am asthmatic but had to ask for it this time - I would ask your MW - I can't see it would hurt to have it - it'll be too late I think to protect LO after birth but at least you would be protected - and I wouldn't like to get the flu with a newborn to look after.....

I wasn't offered it either. I saw a thread on 3rd trimester that all pg women should have had it. I normally get offered because of asthma but nothing this year.
 
I hope you're not in for Christmas too Vick :hugs: - it does feel odd thinking how soon I'll have a little one.

Task for the day - choosing names!

Morning girls cant believe how close it is now for some of us eek and how big some of the babies here already are !

Hope the snow isnt causing too much stress either, i got loads of xmas shopping still to do but its so dangerous driving and noels still working so gona be a few late nights i think.

Managed to get some decent kip last night WITHOUT any pills as I got increasingly guilty about taking them and the effects on junior, i know doc presribed them but nontheless it did feel like his movement was slow.

Got my last growth scan this avo I hope and Noel and Laura are coming which is exciting as they havent seen him since 20 week scan cus of school and work committments, I feel like he has settled down anyway so hoping a straight run till C Section day.

Anyway have a good day xx
 
Are you a little excited for Maddox's first xmas Jo :) hx
 
Hope the scan goes well fluffy - and great news on the sleep.

Hi Jo - hope things are well with you and little Maddox. Are you in Cyprus for Christmas?

Well, first day of maternity leave today. Got up at usual time, had breakfast with hubby, had cleaned the bathrooms, done the vacuuming and packed the baby's hospital bag by 10am. My friend came around with her 12 week old for cuddles for an hour or so, had lunch and now I'm bored! Housebound because of the snow (could get the car out but hubby would not be happy if I got stuck/had an accident - strict instructions not to go anywhere unless absolutely necessary). Trying not to do all my jobs on my first day - had better save defrosting the freezer, tidying up paperwork and my "Monica cupboard" for the rest of the week or I'll be climbing the walls by Friday. Might do my wrapping and a load of washing this afternoon - hopefully that will take up time until its time to start cooking dinner :rofl:. As you can see I am not very good at taking it easy! I think its a good job I only have 10 days to go and Christmas in the middle of it! I've never been one for taking days off to chill at home - I am known for actually being on holiday for as many days of my annual leave as possible - I seriously need to learn how to do this housewife thing!

sounds like a very productive day triple

yes were in Cyprus for xmas :( unfortunately, tempted to ask david to go bk for next xmas, but its soo expensive, so i think it'll be march and then november for bairns 1st birthday with family, im really missing home xx
 
Ah bless you, I'm sure its hard, especially this time of year. But seriously its not fun in this weather at the moment - you're probably better off in Cyprus...if I could click my fingers...! xxx
