Yarrawin, sorry to hear you had such a scare today! My BP was starting to rise (but still within "normal" range) last visit and I expected it to have gone up further today, but was relieved to see it had gone back down slightly. I guess that means mine was stress-related too, as I had hoped. I'm glad to hear bub is doing well. Sounds like everything you're doing is keeping her healthy, so try not to stress over the unwanted side effects. You're doing well by the sounds of it.

Danielle, sorry to hear about the scales playing silly buggers with you. I hope your weight gain isn't as much as you are imagining. On the fatigue issue, if it helps, I was super exhausted between 16-20wks. Even iron supplements didn't help and then it suddenly ended. Hopefully it's just a stage and things will improve soon so you have more energy to chase your 2.5yo around.

AAS, I bit the bullet and got some maternity bras. I ended up buying 16FF, so I was skeptical of them being supportive, but (aside from me missing my underwire terribly) they're not too bad. The ones I got are from Hot Milk. I'm also having terrible trouble with tops because of my bust size. I have found 2 that are the right shape for me, which is just not enough.

Afm, appt today went well. Managing to maintain a (fairly) constant weight and BP was almost back down to where it had been previously. Passed my GTT and no anemia, so relieved about those too. Bub has been breech at the last two appts, but not a cause for concern yet.

DH is still nesting on a grand scale. We got a quote for curtains/blinds this week (almost $5k so we can't afford to get them all done), he's got someone coming tomorrow to service/repair the a/c's and the roof of our new patio should be up by Saturday. The new floors (for 3 bedrooms, including the nursery, plus the study) went in a couple of weeks ago. The house may not be recognisable by the time he finishes, but maybe that's his plan?
