[QUOTE="Scandichic, post: 552339, member: 94210"] Ok. I had hellp syndrome. My eldest had to come out because I wouldn't have survived. I spent 3 days in intensive care and they didn't think I was going to make it but I did. My daughter weighed less than 2 lbs, the whole world saw her before I did, she spent all of my maternity bar the last 4 weeks in hospital but human beings are resilient and so are you! Take the best care you can of yourself. Allow others to help you. Check your bs regularly so that if you start to go low, you can eat something. I wasn't diabetic whilst preggers but lots of people are and they make it. You will be fine. My hubbie was adamant that we weren't having anymore. My eldest then had an horrific accident at 10 months. She picked up a remote control (she had tried to do this the day before but couldn't) waved it through the air, caught it in the handle of a mug(which was well out of her hands reach) of black coffee which went up in the air and landed all over her. We spent 10 days in the burns unit, miles from where we live. As it was my coffee, everyone blamed me. It was the worst experience of my life but you know, there are people out there who have it far worse. I am telling you this in the hope that you will understand how resilient we are and how we can and do cope with all of life's curve balls. Crunch time for us was when we went on our hols and our daughter was on her own whilst the children around had siblings to play with. There is no right or wrong number of children to have. You should do what's right for you as a family. I am really excited for you. Try to relax. Talk to your partner, family and midwife about your concerns! Have you had any cravings?
