Hello spud

Hospital visit again but as i am 26 weeks now i have to also have a scan every two weeks so i arrived for my scan Ste dropped me off and carried on to work. As i have a scan every 2 weeks to measure the baby growth he just cant come with me each time so comes to the important appointments. But i had my scan and as she finished she swapped probes the images had been really clear of spud particularly his head but then she showed me spuds face in 3d. I have never wanted a 3d scan as i never sure about the the images they show but it was amazing and why i couldn't tell who he/she looked like they did have a cute button nose. So as you can guess Ste was a bit miffed.

Then as normal i went to clinic my sugars have been creeping up and i have yo increase my insulin quite a bit the last couple of weeks. But the diabetic team were ok with my changes and told me to carry on. But the obstetrician did worn me that there was more fluid than there should be round the baby due to my sugars being raised and while it may correct itself if my sugars are better and its not a problem at the moment they need to keep an eye on it because it may mean i need more monitoring later on but it also could have settled by time i go next. So back again in two weeks.

Hospital visit

Hospital day again today Ste came with me today and we had the usual wait the midwife saw me and checked me as usual and we heard spud heartbeat which is also reassuring. But was worried i may have an infection thy thought this last time but it was clear but as i have been getting some pain in my tummy so i had to see Dr and he gave me a prescription for antibiotics. I then waited for the diabetic team my habc1 is 6.7 so up a little bit but my sugars have been a bit higher which could be just part of me needing more insulin or could be cause i got infection. Anyway that's now me for another three weeks then i start having two week scans. One thing is for sure though spud is lively enougth but certainly takes after Abi because certainly more lively when he/she hears music,

You look Pregnant

I have been conscious that i have had a growth spurt over the last week or two but other people have noticed. I got accused of waddling on Tuesday and today i finally had to admit that my uniforms no longer fit and i don't no why but it seems to take longer than the length of a pregnancy to get maternity uniforms i have had to get bigger size which why there comfy on the bump look and feel like I'm wearing a tent as they are to big on the arms and shoulders and instead of being short sleeves look like three quarter. And caused someone to comment you look pregnant today.
