i think it's worth getting checked by your GP, cos if you take AB's for thrush, and it's not thrush, that could cause an imbalance too. I thought thrush was more than just itchiness, e.g a discharge as well. Us guessing online and you guessing, is not the same as you being accurately diagnosed by a medico. i realise it's a pain to take your toddler to the GP. If you book an appointment, tell the receptionist you are bringing a LO, they might be sensitive to that.

THe "average preg weight" sounds a very hard one to have an answer about, people vary so much.

i hear you on the "being proud of your mummy bump", i felt that way too. (but the other direction, my baby bump took a long time to become obvious, when i was DYING for people to comment, no-one did!). You are baking a lovely bub, no wonder you want to show off your bump, if i was preg again, i would too :hugs:

i actually think what you put in your body (healthy food) is more important than what the scales say. So if you're eating well, and still gaining whatever - so be it. But if your medico SUSPECTS you might have GD, but is waiting for the 28 wk mark (usual time for the test), i don't understand why your medico is not being PROactive, instead of waiting. That does sound a bit irresponsible to me (assuming that once you ARE diagnosed with GD, you might need to make changes. Why wait if medico suspects it now? ( this is a comment about your medico, not you).

best of luck, i hope you get some relief soon, sounds uncomfy for you.
Last time i had a pap smear, the medical centre got a nurse with 5 mins spare, to take my DD for a walk, so i could have the pap done, without worrying about my DD stickybeaking etc. i hope yours is helpful too.

everyone's different with the weight thing, i wouldn't be too concerned as long as you're healthy.
with the itch thing, i had similar a few months ago, around the time of my papsmear, so i got my gynie to look at it, and he said it was just a skin irritation, common in the heat or excercise with sweating etc. try not to wear any undies for a while, and the canestan cream also works a treat..

well thank you all so much i actually just went to the dr's this morning and well he seems to think it may just be an irritation with the heat and i wear alot of jean shorts and i go to the gym 3-4 times a week (if i can get some time spare lol) so ive been given orders somwhat close to what boobaloo has suggested, when im home try to not wear any undies :P so heres to hoping the irritation goes away quickly thank you all though for giving me your advice on weight gains and other stuff means heaps Xo
