Hey there yall....
Hope that all of U R doing fine and well. All of U seem to B real busy..... No messages coming on board at all...?????????
Abt myself...I had been to the Doc today..... Had an ultrasound... and things seem to B fine.... Am in my 29th week... the baby weighs around 2 pounds... I was a bit worried thinking the baby's weight is not normal at this stage(It seemed less to me).The Doc says that the baby will start gaining weight after the 32nd week..... Abt the Sugar level.... the Doc has told me that am controlling it well:-)) So there is no necessity to meet the Dietician..... that was a good news..... I have not gained much weight after the prev appt..... and I was worried abt it.... But it seems that its just Okay.... Nothing to bother abt.... This GD has caused me to eat less :-( But for how long? I will B a eating loads of food once the baby is out..... :-)) Both me and the baby...we will eat, eat and eat
So thats the news abt me dear would B moms.. .Do take good care of Urself .... And do keep messaging.... Its not a good sight to C the message board with no new entries....
Bye...Take care

Hope you are feeling alright now. I am just about 1 week ahead of you and in my 30 week check up my midwife said that the fundal height is 2 cm less (it was 28 cm at 30 weeks). So she is suspectng that may be baby is bit small.
I had an appointment with GYneac the week after that and he also suspected the same and has referred for anoth scan fo rme to check on baby's size. OS i am going to have another scan on 2nd Jan.
I hope in these 2-3 weeks, baby grows well and we see no problem in the scan.
I am so worried thinking about it. I try to eat balanced food, dont smoke or drink alcohol. i dont know what could be tehproeblem...i am so worried.
so i can feel your concern about ur baby's weight too.
I hope, in ur next appointment you find your baby growing well and picking up that weight now.

Good luck with ur GD watching diet.
take care.

Do you mean that you eat only 3 meals instead of 3 + 3 snacks. what about milk, fruits etc.
I eat 3 + 3 as reccommended and limit the quantity. Take chappati, sabji, yougurt,salad for lunch & dinner. Other times I take milk or fruits or bread butter etc. What about proteins? How do you get them? Are you veg.?

My sugar is in control if I eat the limited qty , if I exceed / change slightly it rises up to 140 or 150. I mean if I take dal along with sabji it will rise.
How's your wt doing? I have gained only 12 pounds till now.Hence will be getting 2nd ultrasound next week to check baby's growth. What is Ragi??

That's all for now. Take care .

Hi Shannu
Glad to know that everything is fine with U. I am in my 31st week. I have Gest Diab. too. Controlling it as much as possible. Have to test sugar daily. I am not gaining much wt. . How much have you gained till now? I am worried for that, but doctor says fundul ht. is ok as per wks so baby growth is fine. Anyhow they will do another ultrasound to verify. How do you control your gest. diab?. Give tips.
Ok bye. take care

HI there....
Its sad that even U R suffering from GD...... Its a really sad part of pregnancy.... But then... there is no other go...but to face it...
About myself....even I do check the sugar level three times in day.... Rt now...am told by the Doc to eat 3 mini meals and 3 times snacks.... I dont prefer eating snacks much.... I do have chappathi (2 in number) 3 times aday along with a Sabji(the qty is quite high) and a Cucumber and some yogurt.... So thats my meal..... It has helped me reduce the sugar level quite a lot......
What R U doing? And how is Ur diet... I just read in one of the messages that Ragi is good to bring down to sugar level.... So will try that also soon.... Thats it for now... Do take care.
With love and Prayers
Shannu
