Aww thanks hun i try to stay as positive as i can, but like any normal human, it does get me down some days! - but i just try to remind myself, that there is always someone, somewhere in the world dealing with a lot worse, and i shouldn't think the world revolves around me
That's so true. There is always someone who has been through worse and we have the benefit of modern medicine. Imagine trying year in year out pre u/s & blood tests not knowing what was wrong! We are lucky really.

- wow your bubba was large! - im assuming that at the 28 week glucose test, it came back clear? - my DD was 7 pounds 14 ounces (3.6kg) but i daresay had i not been on insulin for my GD she wouldve been much larger!!
I can't honestly remember even having it. Seems so long ago. I didn't know about the GD/size relationship until after DS was born so I wouldn't have thought to ask for it. My ob wasn't at all concerned about me as I had a perfectly normal pg with no alarming symptoms whatsoever (until he decided he was comfy in there and stayed a few days longer than he was supposed to ). All my scans were measuring to dates though and she thought he would be an average or even smallish bub - around the 7 pound mark. She was as surprised as I was to see how big he was. Next time I will make sure I ask and pay better attention to my diet.
