I want to reply to others too, but have to reply to this first. NO!! Give it away to someone. Don't even keep it around you. Don't tell your mom you did so, if you think she'll get upset.

Others: I didn't attend my class last week because I suddenly got hit with nausea just before the class. Had to see my doc, and he said that it was all good, and possibly, I have iron deficiency. He hasn't called me yet about GTT and nutrient test results. I should call him tomorrow.

Low carb vegetarian diet - there are many grains with low glycemic index. That is the key to controlling GD; don't eliminate carbs (in my opinion; I am not a doctor). Eat brown rice instead of white. Whole wheat flour, instead of refined. Note that "whole wheat flour" in Indian stores in US is NOT whole wheat flour in my experience. I get organic unbleached whole wheat bread flour. It works great for rotis. I found this -

But you can do your own research.

 

hi all

since i m working at times its too too busy a day for me ...
we have our shifting coming up this thursday n im going all paranoid about it.....

my baby kicks moves , pops up n disturbs me alot nowadays esp during night...but as u say i too enjoy it ...after 15 planning to go for half days only and then the 6 months break will be a big big relief....

my sugar levels dont stay below 120 but doesnt cross 140 also ..tho its not always...is it a matter of concern....any advpl...i do go for 30 min walks daily

 

Sorry , Kutty , for thinking you were the one updating the list of due dates - they say the brain degenerates in pregnancy - well it seems to be true for me at least ! Thanks Amul for immediately correcting the list .
I didn't realise all of you were first time mommies - am I in the wrong club / Is there another club for old hags like me ? If there is I'll just quietly sneak out of this one...
But anyway like I said, it's a long time since my first one so it almost feels like the first time all over again...

I was thinking about keeping my bag packed because I opened my clothes cupboard yesterday and it was such a mess, I thought my husband would never be able to find anything if it happened that I had to be rushed to the hospital and had no time to pack..

This is a rough list of what I think I will need when I go to hospital to deliver ( for my first pregnancy I didn't even make a list, let alone take half this stuff ..)

Two sets of good( outdoor) clothes
Two or three nighties with front opening
STs , hand towels, bath towels
Toiletries- toothbrush, paste, hairbrush, vaseline, deodorant, hairclips
Fruits and nuts to snack on in case I feel hungry at night
Water
Steel tumblers, plates, spoons ( Hospitals in India do not provide these)
Bedsheets, extra pillow
Books, board games ( this is for my older one)
A book or notepad and pen to write in
Fully charged and topped up mobile phone
Medicines- paracetamol, digene gel, analgesic gel for backache
Baby stuff - will elaborate later

Pretty sure there's some stuff I've left out - feel free to add your thoughts!

 

Oh, about cervix length - the length of the cervix averages about 3cms, so that's perfectly normal. Shorter cervix is supposed to be linked to preterm labour but you should ask your doctor what is the miniimum safe lower limit . You shouldn't be worried if your doctor isn't . Stay cool!

 

Hello Ladies,

How are you doing....

My updates...

Yesterday i had my prenatal checkup.I lost 4pounds weight in 2 weeks.Doctor said it is ok to loose weight as i am on GD Diet.Doctor said she will prescribe one medicine to control sugar levels, as my post dinner levels are high most of the time.I asked her, whether we can wait for one more week and check for the results.If i am able to control my levels that is fine otherwise have to go for medicine or inuslin injection from next week on.

They said, they will do NST from 34th week onwards.Again next tuesday, i have an appointment.

 

@Thomamaria,

Thanks for the list.

This is the list which i found in this forum which was posted by an IL,

[FONT=&quot]Yeah dear.. I don’t want to put on weight more than 15 kgs in total.. so I resist my urge for sweets and chocolates and not all having any fried foods or snacks… Are you working?in that case u will not put on weight I think.. coz we move around a lot during day na.. anyway don’t worry, this is ur pregnancy weight and will go soon after this… and for the baby movements when ever I feel like my LO is not moving, I just lie on my left side and tap my fingers gently on my tummy….i get my kicks back..he he.. its very funny….:rotfl[/FONT]

Hi,

Eliz and confused211,

I will definately not eat any of my snacks. Actually my mother sent those b4 she came to know that I have GD. I think I will feel better once I have an appointment tomorrow with nutritionist, then I will know where r my glucose level.

Eliz, I too do the same thing some time when I want to feel baby kicking. I sleep on left side and the LO starts kicking. I dont know if he feels uncomfortable by my sleeping on left side. I sleep mostly on my right side now a days.

Confused 211,

I read somewhere saying that nausea is last trimester is normal. Thanks for the link.

Immini,

Nice to know you have 6 months leave. You will get to spend a wonderful time with ur LO. I have heard that 140 is the level normal for normal people but during pregnancy they want the level at 120. I have my appointment with nutritionest tomorrow. I will check with them.

Madhura and Thomamaria,

Thanks for the list. I am still making list for what to buy for the LO.

Madhura, I think if ur night values are coming out of range, try eating low carb tortillas at the night. They are of bad taste but I think they have very high dietary fiber and less sugar in them.

Have you all started shopping for ur LO.
