I'm 2 weeks ahead so wont be much help, but for what it's worth, i'm still feeling drowsy even when i've had a good nights sleep. Doctor said it was normal

Have you had your 28 week midwife appointment yet?

I was feeling the same as you've described and had blood tests yesterday at my 28 week appointment and I got a call today saying I had anemia so I've been put on iron tablets. It may not be this but its worth a thought.

I had my appointment yesterday, so will not have results for while.

NO SLEEP IS POOP! Especially when you have a little one already to look after, I am shattered when I wake up Just rest when you can.

I would def say get your iron level checked, I ran out of my multi vitamin and mineral (containing iron) for 3 days last month and I felt like absolute poo for those days. Just didnt want to move or do anything. Went back on them and felt like a new woman again. Low iron can have a major effect on you. Get better soon.

when I was pg with Rebecca they found I was anemic at my 2nd lot of blood tests and was given iron tablets to take every day, best to go to your doctors if youve already had your 2nd lot of blood tests done,

well midwife phoned today and i have really low iron so she has requested a prescription hopefully have it in a few days also i had the random glucose test and it was a little high 6.4, the MW has asked me to tell my consultant about the result on Wednesday and then he can decide if i have a fasting test or just check it again in a few weeks and go from there.
Thing is if I have to do the fasting test it is going to be difficult as they don't do it in the surgery anymore and i will have to travel for an hour with no food or drink (only water) inside me and look after Emma and be stuck there probably all day .
will have to update after seeing the consultant.
