JUNE/JULY/AUGUST 2014 DUE DATE CLUB - THREAD #3

Gafan, it makes sense, of course we will put on weight just because we are dropping the diet, and then with pregnancy, it is a recipe for packing up loads. Unfortunately I didn't lose that much weight with dieting as I fell pregnant pretty fast, I lost about 7 or 8 kg (not good with lbs) at first, then put on about 2 or 3 and then fell pregnant, and I was slightly overweight before soooo, I am far from my ideal weight :( But I think that if all your tests are good then there's not much to worry about, been there 3 times before, the last 2 Doctor wasn't happy with my weight gain and all went well, so I'm not too concerned.

Know it's a bit sad to be done but am more and more excited that we are done and this is my family:) my body gets so sore at night And it's hard to keep up with my boys.
I was gaining a lot in the beginning and my dr. Cautioned me. But I was really underweight due to the sway. So I cut out sweets and exercised, now she says. Haven't put much weight on the last 2 visits:/....really, what do you want?
She is measuring right on so that's all that matters.
I have a feeling she will be a June baby and will be late with her....I was always 4 days early with the boys.

Funny how some of them need extra cooking. My first was 1 week early, second 1 week late and last also 1 week late. I hope this one is a little bit late because I want an August baby, little Leo like me :)

My mom, dh, and first ds are all Leo's! I really have no idea when she will come. Nursery is almost done, things are getting in order and will soon be packing our hospital bags. Then she come when she wants too:)

On Wednesday I "failed" the first diabetes screen so I took the 3 hour test today. I will find out on Monday.
For now I'll believe I'm int he 66% of women who screen positive but aren't diabetic. :fx:

Oh no! I really hope so. I was so sure I'd fail when I had mine done a coupleof weeks ago but they'd said they'd call me and I never got the call. I hope all goes well for you and can be controlled by diet x

I 'failed' the test with my second pregnancy as well and I don't have diabetes, it's pretty common, as far as I can remember the Doctor just told me to go easy on sugar and certain foods and nothing else. I'm sure you'll be fine x

The same thing happened to me with this pregnancy. I failed 1 hr but passed 3 hr. I always passed the 1 hour with the other 3 pregnancies. I think it's 1 in 3 fail the 1 hour. It's very common. But then pass the 3 hour. I asked the lab lady her thoughts and told her how I ate granola bars and a banana before the test she thinks it has something to do with it. But they tell you to eat normally for the 1 hour. Don't stress over it. If you do end up having it I'm sure you can do diet control and be fine.

Gosh haven't been on for a while... school holidays, kid with tonsils and adenoids out, another cut his head open on daddys weight dumbbell, and the other one today crashes off his bike and now knows why I go on and on about helmet wear! In laws are also coming for the week - and back to school they go in one day! (secretly cannot wait, things seem much easier with routine and less house mess!)... 25 weeks this week not sure if its going fast or slow? as I want it to do both!.. Hope everyone is well. Cute bump pics too.

Maybebabythree I had no idea you were pregnant!! Congrats! I thought your ds3 was your last baby? Do you know what you're having?

Good news- I definitely do not have gestational diabetes! What a relief!
