Kateo, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You have the right to be an absolute pain in the arse with the midwife - I would be checking in whenever you're unsure and don't let them make you feel like you're bothering them! I can't begin to imagine the pressure you are under. Are they talking about inducing early?

I've gained about 19kg so far in the pregnancy, but it seems to have slowed down over the last few weeks. I think since I found out about the GD I haven't been giving in to temptations (I seem to have zero willpower with the sweet stuff since I fell pregnant!) and I think at my last check which was a week inbetween I only gained 400g. They do say you can lose weight towards the end of pregnancy so if they're not bothered about the 3kg then I wouldn't stress about it.

What you've been told seems different to me - I'm supposed to keep it under 5.0 fasting and then under 7.0 2 hrs after every meal. Is yours different?
