[QUOTE="RaeDawn, post: 1103078, member: 282753"] Thank you both for the quick responses. I think the weight loss is due to the diet change - I've found it hard to get enough calories while reducing carbs and sugars- only so much avocado a girl can eat (though I did make a good avocado soup) Do you think best to test 1h or 2h after eating? I've been doing 1h but may start doing both as I did it both earlier and the 1h reading and it was 4.1, then 2h it was 5.9 but the nurse told me it was meant to spike at 1h rather than 2h! Fingers crossed the fluids will reduce- will post back to update but am just so nervous in case they haven't. Am still only 30 weeks and desperately want to get to 37 but I know the more fluid there is the less likely I'll reach full term, and more risk they'll be birth complications. I'm sure this baby is just being a princess and growing her own swimming pool! Thank you again both- it's very kind of you to advise-x [/QUOTE]
