Name: Mother2B Please tell me the correct procedure to perform GTT. I have heard that after drinking 50 gm Glucose, every hour they take blood sample but in my case they gave me 75gm glusose and took samples every half an hour. Please help me. I am currently in 24th week.

Thanks

Hellooo Jyothi

Hi Jyothi,

Wow..good to hear from u after a long time..actually i only got busy travelling...utilising this golden period to enjoy as the doctor has told not to travel after 32nd week,as the 8th mnth will start then.

YUP...u r right,that is the best way to check ur babies movement after ur meals..and my dear little angle is active almost half of the day..and the whole night..and she kicks me really hard now..specially at the bottom.Good our babies r having fum inside.

Good newz is that i had my glucose test done and u will b happy to know that' s its perfectly normal......I am so much relaxed now.

So,the weather has changed in CT or not.I will call u soon dear.

Take care
Be happy

Hello Meenakshi

Glad to hear that your glucose level is normal Meenakshi. I have my test result tom, hopefully it should be normal. Did your caretaker talk to you about childbirth classes?

The weather in CT is getting cold now...Day time its sunny but evenings and night and not warm now. I have been to my brothers place in Boston and I noticed the fall colors there. I am sure, in CT it will be in the first week of Oct.

Well, do you have any plans for the long weekend?

Talk to you soon,
Jyothi.

Hi,

The best thing wud be to follow whatever ur OBY GEN Doctor suggests u.She is the best judge believe me.
And as far as i have seen doctors take pregnancy very seriously as even they don' t want any complications..so if u have sugar..strictly follow her advice on changing ur diet now.
Good luck..and dont worry..its a very common problem during pregnancy.

Take care

Hi Meenakshi

Hi Meenakshi,

How did your GTT go? I had mine last week and will get the results this 25th.

I was waiting for your call but didn´ t hear from you....How/z everything going on your end? My little one started kicking me....She has a particular pattern. She kicks me during my breakfast, lunch and dinner times. After that she stays so calm. I noticed that she hardly moves when I take a shower....I am sure she is enjoying it. How´ z your sweet pea doing?

Good Luck,
Jyothi (CT)

Not to worry

If you want a normal delivery, ask your doc first to try vaginal delivery if not then go for forceps delivery where baby can taken out with the help of tongs...
