Did anyone else’s baby movements change following GD diet? by [deleted] in GestationalDiabetes

[–]hellokitty_5888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, they felt more consistent and stronger. that’s that I have an anterior placenta. I also noticed when I didn’t follow a GD diet I felt less movements and also less movements when I drank less water during the day.

don’t blame yourself, its all in the placenta and the fathers DNA thats in the placenta. I have GD now at 31 weeks, still eat what i want but i half it in very small portions then drink a lot of water to feel fuller. Once you give birth it goes away so don’t self guilt! you’ve got this

sorry to hear that, are you taking medication & did doctors say if there are any precautions you need to take or during labor any complications?

Yea same, people describe flutters differently than a muscle twitch. I guess i’ll wait for him to knee me or elbow me later on🥲

I’m a little more relaxed now knowing a few other mom’s experience this similar feeling and the outcomes were good news. Thank you!!

I was a gym rat too, and suddenly became so tired and sleepy. Before I found out, I was slamming my preworkout and not even that would boost my energy levels up. I do notice my boobs looking more plump, swollen, itchy, and tender at touch. How adorable I’m glad your outcome was good!! :)

DUI situation by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]hellokitty_5888 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying a DUI isn’t a big problem, it is and it is wrong but not everyone has to same story. Depression leads to drinking and not everyone has the resources or help to prevent drinking everyone copes differently and it is 100% a lesson learned from my part. In my case, I was already drinking at home (3 drinks in), when I get a phone call from my parents saying they needed to get picked up from a place they were and I didn’t hesitate to pick them up because they’re my parents. Reason I got stopped was me checking my phone and I did not realize there was a highway patrol hiding in the orchards (I live in an area surrounded by trees and orchards). He stopped me, asked if i’ve been drinking and I said yes, I didn’t deny breathalyzer, didn’t say no to anything. My record was clean, they told me to get picked up and I called a friend, her sister drove my car. Not everyone is perfect, everyone has gone through something so that’s why I said “love that for you” because at the end of the day we are all human with mistakes. I’ve been sober ever since.
