Increased thirst

Yes - same here. Mostly during the night , I wake up several times with dry mouth and have to drink water, but still thirsty. I think it’s part of the journey 🥹

Same here at 25 weeks! I’ve been told that it MAY be a sign of gestational diabetes so definitely check with your midwife at your next appointment. I plan to do the same 😊

I personally have done the diabetes test last week - all good, blood sugar in normal range. I guess it’s due to hormone and/or increased blood flow. But yes, it’s good to talk to midwife as indeed can be a sign (less common)

Thank you! I’ll definitely mention it to my midwife then but don’t see her for another month

I would ring your midwife or pregnancy unit and explain about the dry mouth. I thought it was a normal pregnancy symptom but turned out to be gestational diabetes. I have only been making diet changes for 5 days and the dry mouth has stopped. Normally you get offered the test around 26-28 weeks so even if you could book it in to be safe.

Yes me too! 😫
