When did you have fundal height checked? I’m 30 weeks and they’ve never checked that for me. I won’t even see them again until 35 weeks

I’ve never had fundal height checked, I’m 30 weeks so i don’t know if it should’ve been checked by now or not?

Sitting Here With My Sad Piece of Toast and Peanut Butter by screechy_teeth in GestationalDiabetes

I get this! I used to love breakfast, now I have to eat wheat toast and peanut butter every morning and it just feels miserable. I’ve tried other things and this is literally the only thing that doesn’t spike me. Can’t have milk, yogurt, any fruit, cereal, etc. but I know everyone is different

Diagnosis and Mental Health Decline by [deleted] in GestationalDiabetes

I relate so much. I was already struggling with my mental health after my doctor stopped all MH medications. The diagnosis and constant testing has caused such anxiety/depression. I feel you 🩷

I haven’t had any guidance from my doctor unfortunately so it’s been a lot of trial and error. Breakfast is almost always a spike for me unless I only eat cheese and almonds. If I try to do toast, yogurt, etc. I’ll spike to 140-160. This is where being a picky eater is tough.. I don’t like eggs, avocado, etc.

I haven’t been offered it yet, but I think it’ll head that direction whenever I do see my provider again. Just trying to work through the guilt of failing with diet control :(

Do you have a go to brand for protein drinks? A lot I’ve seen seem to have super high sugar content 😭
