    Good grief mummy how are you managing to do all of this!!
    If blood test comes back unsure you will have to go to the antenatal assessment unit have a blood test, drink some glucose, wait for 2 hours and they take another blood test. Not too awful but may struggle to entertain DD for 2 hours so lets hope is all normal.

  • thank you i will try with the list, i love being a SAHM, but might have to look into getting a evening job though once baby has come and things have settled down to help pay of the debts quicker but will see how we are getting on in a few mths....wouldnt be for about 6 mths as i would be able to handle it with little baby etc.... couldnt afford to go to work in the day and pay some one to look after dd2 and this baby and dd1 after school- sure it would cost more then i would earn.......:eek:

    Definately worth ruling it out as it can make you poorly and give you a HUGE baby like mine!! I was borderline diabetic so they didnt do anything but with hindsight I really think they should have monitored me more carefully and poss induced me earlier rather than leave me to go 2 weeks overdue.
    Aidan is cute, I had a little tear today as I was happy as I watched him sleeping on OH.
