@JAR1981 glad to hear all is well! The uncertainty continues right up until birth it seems 😕 Always better to get things checked though!
I'm also posterior placenta and am sure the movements are changing depending on his position - which lately seems to be vertical and I feel like I'm folding him in half every time I sit less than bolt upright 🥺
Anyway, I've been awake for a couple of hours now, so the insomnia is back too 😬
As for GD, I had my next appointment a full 2 weeks after getting the testing kit. Not sure how they would know your readings - mine are recorded on the device and I write them down on a form they gave me, which is what they checked when I went in. I was controlling mine really well until just after that appointment, however my resting (pre-breakfast) readings are now over 5.3 (but under 6.0) every morning regardless of how low they are in the evening. And that's been the case for a week now. I have read that this is often a problem to control in GD - on the same website I mentioned before, and there doesn't seem to be much that can be done 😢 I'm hoping it's not bad enough to need medication and am considering declining if they want to put me on insulin. With only a few weeks to go and not much of an increase in expected glucose levels, I really don't want another thing to have to take (currently on: aspirin, iron supplements, omeprazole, folic acid, lactulose and 4x blood glucose testing every day).
Ugh, sorry for all the complaining! On the positive side, there's only a month to go, and bub is already awake this morning and gently kicking me ☺️
We're finally doing the nursery today (cot and changing table still not arrived, but we'll put the Snuz together for the time being and swap it into our bedroom later). Then dropping the cat at a cat-hotel and tomorrow Cornwall for DH's gran's funeral. I'm out for dinner in town tonight and have persuaded DH too drive me there and pick her up 😃 but am now obviously terrified that I'll catch covid at the last hurdle..
