So the nhs website says when your lo has been crying and screaming is persistent or concerned seek medical help, I know I sound bit stupid (that’s why I’m incognito) but how long until you seek help.
Really struggling with a call I received this morning that I’ve got gestational diabetes, no information or my actual results just the news that it’s positive ! My heads spinning and I’m gutted, I have so many questions & feel so alone. What does this mean for me and baby boy 🫣🩵🥹

Does anyone know roughly how long to expect between GP referral and being invited to booking appointment with the midwife in Glangwili? I’m 7w2d but it’s been 2 weeks since I was referred by my GP, not panicking yet but would be good to have a rough idea!
I feel like my lines aren’t progressing enough, they’re in order top oldest bottom newest but they all just look the same to me.

Does anyon...
The midwife has just called to schedule a home visit for Monday (I’ll be 32 weeks) what can I expect at this? Thanks x
I just had my 12 week apt. And all went super well! I’m just so disappointed with meeting a new provider today who continued to cut me off when SHE asked me questions.
