Hi everyone!

Hope, I hope your puppy is feeling better. Sleeping is good...hopefully he is feeling better asap!!

Melydu - our 2 week appt. are starting now. Same for you? Ever since 28 weeks....so excited to be at the next step

I have been feeling nervous recently. Nervous that the baby is okay. Nervous about delivery. And everything else that goes along with it. But I am just trying to remain calm. I talked to the doctor about some of my concerns and so I feel much better about them. So that's good news!

I hope you are all feeling well

I do not start having appts every 2 weeks untill I am about 33 weeks. Doctor just told me yesterday.

Hope-I hope you pass your 3 hr test!

 

[Kalabear]

Hope glad to hear your puppy is better!

I was just reading that their is a high incidence of false positives on the glucose one hour tests which is why they do the three hour test then. Sorry to hear you have to go through it...I hope it goes well Monday!!!

Hi everyone! Hope sory to hear you failed the 1 hour, I hope the 3 hour one is fine!! So I passed my 1 hour but I too was a little anemic but also my thyroid levels were low so I had to go back yesterday and get more blood work to figure out if I need to see a specialist for my thyroid Im really confused because Ive never had issues before but it scares me that something might be wrong, They didnt say when the results would be in but I have another OB appointment next week so hopefully by then. Ive also had a ton of lower back pain and pelvic pain, I know he is head down and really low so Im assuming its just him putting pressure down there but it scares me I hope hes not thinking he can come out anytime soon!! We still have another at least 8 weeks for him to "bake" haha, hope everyone else is doing great!!

 

[halullat]

I'm sorry to hear about that Hope, fingers crossed the 3 hour will be fine though!

My glucose was normal apparently, but they are sending me for a growth scan at 32 weeks and have to go for a heart echo too. They didn't explain to my why I needed the growth scan and I am feeling so terrible about it, can't stop crying and with the stress I've stopped being able to eat and I'm so scared it will hurt my LO x

Pip- so glad to hear from u and hope ur test comes back good- the 3 hour one sucks
fTmommy- sorry to hear about u having to follow up with ur thyroid- im sure baby is fine and its good the docs r on top of it keep us posted.
Hal- i know its easier said then done but try not to stress tooo much- its prolly just a precaution... And not eating wont help!!!! Take care of urself!!!! Ill be thinking of u!

So my results r in and i PASSED my three hour glucose test- my one hour was still a lil too high but my fasting and 2 and three hour were fine. My three hour was almost reading as low as a fasting glucose - which is prolly why i get light-headed so much--- my doc just told me not to go more than 3 hours without snacking to keep my glucose level more steady. Thanks all for ur support - i feel like i dodged a bullet with that one.

 

[Melydu]

Hope- I'm happy to hear you passed your test, I passed mine too! It's a huge relief!

 

[Hope115]

Yes it def is!!!!

 

[FTMommy01]

Yay! Happy for you ladies!!

 

[Kalabear]

Hal - When is your scan? I hope you are feeling a bit better now....keep us posted. Try to eat...it will help you to feel better

Hope and Melydu - Yay Congrats on passing!!

FTmommy - I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in the first trimester while I was still in China. They put me on medication. I stopped taking the medication before I visited the doctor in the States (I had many reasons and did so with the suggestion from my father who is a pharmacist). Anyway, I am so glad I did...the doctor took my bloods at the first appointment and said my thyroid was completely normal. With every draw it is still normal without the medication. I have never had problems before with my thyroid. The doctor said that the hormones had probably confused my brain and so it was just producing too much of the thyroid hormone and was just a fluke even though they are still watching it closely. Perhaps that is what is going on with you? Don't worry too much about it. They will just keep a close eye on you and the baby.

Heather - Christmas music, how sweet!!! I can't wait to start listening to it!

I have noticed my little guy kicks during American football games alot...my husband is a bit disappointed because he is a big soccer/football fan haha! Maybe he is kicking because he doesn't like it though...at least that's what I've told my DH.

 

[FTMommy01]

Thanks Kala, apparently its very normal in the first trimester but it supposed to level out as your pregnancy progresses along with your hormones. So the fact that mine were fine and now all of a sudden are low is why they are wondering what is going on. I called this morning and only the nurse was in but she looked up my results and said they are still low so once my doctor gets in she will see if they want to refer me to a specialist and see if my levels are low enough for medication. Sounds like a big mess just hope it doesnt affect the baby at all, Im in the home stretch I dont need things to start going wrong now!

 

[Kalabear]

Aw FTmommmy I hope they can find out whats causing it! The specialist will be able to tell you more. Keep us posted!!

 

[Melydu]

I gave in, I scheduled my 3d/4d ultrasound for this Sunday and I'm so excited!

 

[Hope115]
