Almost 31 weeks pregnant and I am BEAT!! Fainting is getting worse, I now have broken nose and teeth as a result. Went to maternity unit today with uti and they found a heart murmur requiring a heart ultrasound this week and my blood sugars were so low they had to get lucazade etc down me so now they think I have pregnancy diabetes!! Like what is next???? My work is so full on and I am physically exhausted. I have hit a brick wall this week xx

Ohhh wow I feel for you. That sounds like such a lot. :( Is your BP low that's causing you to faint or is it low blood sugars?

They've been saying "oh it must just be your BP taking a quick dip" but today this doctor thinks it's diabetes. We'll find out more this week xx

Feel you. I'm having to have a diabetes test at 33w due to a giant baby, too many waters and just generally feeling like a pile of turd.
