Yay, very pleased the scan went well.

Well i didn't say anything to brat's mother. What's wrong with me?! I have issues. One of the Goonies from next door was talking to me this morning to, asking if she can buy my fish tank off me, and i had the perfect opportunity to say "hey ya know when you get up at 6:30am every day and watch your TV at full volume.... well DON'T!!!!!" But nooooooooooooooooo i said nothing. I used to be very outspoken and now i'm a loser

Anyway, i'm hoping Pink Princess 1 is okay cos doesn't she live in Cumbria?!??

edit - actually think she's further south than Whitehaven, if i remember rightly she's in B-in-F

I had a GTT at 13 weeks and one at 28 weeks because I have a family history of adult-onset and gestational diabetes on both sides of my family and they wanted to make sure I was ok. Also because by 28 weeks I was massive and they thought I had a gigantinormous baby :rotfl:

Here they just go through the motions. I had a regularly scheduled GTT due to family history and the fact that I saw the doctor much much earlier on because of chronic thirst didn't make any difference. It was a complete waste of time anyway because they just churned out their standard advice which was to change to a "low" sugar diet. When I pointed out that it would be increasing my sugar intake to follow their low sugar diet they didn't give me any other advice and the only reason they could give for a second GTT was that it was "trust" policy. I was having extra growth scans anyway (in case she was small because of me being underweight) so they would have known if she was big anyway.

Evening all..

Seems I'm lagging behind in the recovering from this cold stakes.. Rhys better, OH better, me surrounded by tissues, throat sweets and cold tablets :cool:

Rhys had mega sleep last night. Three hours after we got home, awake for 20mins to eat his tea (followed by falling over cos he was rubbing his eyes so furiously he lost his balance!), another three hours, awake for 30mins for a bottle and PJs on, then sleep again 'til morning! :eek: Seems to be making up for it tonight though and apparently doesn't require an evening nap between coming home from Grandma's and eating tea!

He's currently sporting an eye patch I finally got round to phoning the eye clinic at the hospital today and it appears he's fallen out of the system (the last person to see him didn't write on the notes when he was to be seen next) so they've quickly sorted that and he's got an appointment for Monday morning! Reassuringly his vision and hand/eye co-ordination seems no worse with his better eye covered

Hope everyone is well and rested... *hugs* and fingers crossed for better sleep tonight as required! xxx

Beanie - Thank you for your concern - I do live in Cumbria but we have been out for a the day to Blackpool and just getting updates from people at home! to say we are all shocked is an understatement where we live is usually the quietest place in the UK! its so awful - just watching the updates on sky news now

got-it-spend-it

Glad all looked well on the scan, Bruno! Fingers crossed all is okay with OH too. Hopefully the protein is nothing sinister.

Beenie- can you arrange to be out next wednesday and just text brat's mum to let her know?

Junior Apprentice tonight. Part of me hates it but I'm sure I'll still watch it anyway. I really should be packing for going away on Friday but I seriously cannot be arsed.

Evening all :hello:

OH took the kids to a park (under half a mile away) they walked and he was on his quad bike right beside them and someone called the police because he was on the wrong side of the road :eek: he did say that he was with the kids and did they want him to leave them alone and whizz off on the other side of the (very quiet village) road?!

Anyway no harm done, they just left him to it :rotfl:

Bruno, trace protein is nothing. Glucose in the urine is more common with diabetes (first sign of my GD). High BP could simply be from white coat hypertension, ie, she was stressed at being in hospital. First signs of my GD was thirst, massive, massive thirst, I was drinking about 4lts of water/juice a day and still thirsty. Although, I was told that high BP problems and GD were linked in a round about way, basically if you have one you are at higher risk of the other due to some underlying metabolism problem, or thats the theory.

What is her EDD then?

Pink_Princess_1

Beanie I would just say I have plans for next wed so Im sorry I wont be able to have him and leave it at that. She should soon take the hint
