Yeh I think ill go early.. but the further along I get I think its just wishful thinking lol! The glucose test for diabetes. Home now though. I thought the two hour wait would drag but it wasnt too bad.
That sounds nice. Glad you had a good weekend. I know what you mean about the travelling lol. My oh's dad lives in fleetwood which is next to blackpool and that takes 4 hours. So we haven't been up there the whole time ive been pregnant lol.
My weekend was ok. OH was in charity footy match so went to watch that when weather was lovely n seen some family n washed some babys clothes xxx

yeah travelling is awful when ya preggers lol aww sounds nice iv washed all mine and iv got way too many !! lol and way too many nappies but dont think ya can have too many of them things!? lol xx

 

[charlotte89]

and does every pregnant woman get offered this glucose test? i aint had one yet xx

 

[Kelly450]

Yeh we have a lot now. We brought probably just enough. But we got given a lot too. Which is great because as a baby only wears them for a month or two before they grow out, they are hardly used and i LOVED washing them all and hanging them on the line lol!

You wont get offered the glucose test unless you have a high BMI or have a history of diabetes in the family.
My BMI was 31 so i had to have one. And its everything over 30 that gets offered one xx
