well......
he actually was not too concerned with the size of boo boo. he said they are more concerned when babies are small and he said it was a 'nice big baby; so no concerns......i am to have another scan at 38 weeks and depending what that shows, we will then discuss options about inducing early etc. he actually said that with big babies, they often have an easier delivery if labour has started naturally so they try not to worry, but he did say i will have the choice if i dont want to risk going beyond due date. he basically said we wont even have this conversation til after 38 weeks and so not to worry.......they wouldnt even induce til 38/39 weeks anyway....so with that....all seems ok...he did say the raised fluid was just cos boo boo is a big one...
then came the bad bit...talking of big ones.........i had a very uncomfortable conversation about me being overweight...which i knew i was anyway at the start of the pregnancy but i have been so careful not to pile the weight on and have done really well and he did say that was excellent and he was pleased with that...however, the bloods i had done last friday did show my sugarlevel was slightly increased and so now i have to ave a GTT done on friday!!...i was dreading this. he di say if i do have gestational diabetes then it is just slightly and will be diet controlled, but i still feel gutted.....he said that ifi see a dietician it will just help me with the rest of my life too..but i am hoping if there is any diabetes ther, then it will just go once boo boo here.......and i know i have weight to lose once boo boo here too...
so all in all.......just have to wait and see if i do have GD after friday...but fingers crossed all will be ok and all seems ok with boo boo so thats the main thing...
oh and there was tiny trace of protein in my wee, but he said that was nothing to worry about as they always find something in that clinic but its been sent off for checking just to be sure...
still feel a bit down cos it was all going so well....sorry for the long post.xx
