Gestational diabetes screening in the first trimester accurate??

Hi. My OB ordered a glucose test at 10 weeks for some reason. I have no history of diabetes and I didn’t have gestational diabetes with my first. My test came back at 142 and the range was 140. And they made me fast for the test even though I wasn’t supposed to. Is it accurate?

Best exercises for 2nd trimester?

My family tells me to take it easy but I know I should exercise. Anytime a little more active I get bad hip/low back pain. And pain in my lower abdomen like under my belly. Is that normal? Should I be moving more and deal with the pain? My BMI was already high before pregnancy and I’m trying to keep my weight down.

Ughhhhghhhghh. So frustrating. So I haven't changed my diet, I have been doing light exercise, and yet here we go again... My first pregnancy I put on like 80 lbs. It was insane. Size 6 to 12 basically. And I didn't eat anything crazy, and I walked close to 2 miles a day. I thought this time would be different. It...

3 stone heavier this pregnancy

I weigh around 21 st. I know it’s a lot and I’m pregnant with baby number 2. I’m scared. I’m worried my weight and being pregnant will impact my health. Or midwife’s will be horrible. Any advice ?

Do you beleive the Nub theory is accurate ??

It was right with all mine that showed nubs at 12 weeks. I believe it is when done correctly. Some those paid companies lean on partials and give it a bad name!

Paranoid?

34+5 with baby #2. Been feeling like he is moving less and not as strong. I really am trying to avoid rushing to the hospital bc before my first son, I lost the first baby and when I was pregnant with my son I went all the time for any little thing. I’ve gone a good amount of times to the ER during this pregnancy, I...

Informing work about pregnancy

At what point in your pregnancy did you tell your manager you were pregnant i.e. weeks? I haven't told mine yet so just wondering if there's a certain point when people tell their manager really.

37+1 how am I going to cope with another 2 weeks of this?!

I just don’t think I can do another 2 weeks of this. I have a c section booked in for 5/2 as I’m PAL and IVF pregnancy but PGP is really bad, I can’t do anything, I’m not going anywhere, I’ve got on/off cramping (likely braxton hicks), I’m shattered but I’m awake every hour crying in agony in bed, I have a 4 year ol...
