Hormones?
Currently in the last lap of my pregnancy at 31 weeks. Feeling crappy everyday due to back pain (sprained back was completely bed ridden for 3 days. Better now but still in pain) stomach cramps. Not able to sleep due to all the discomfort. Have been vomitting large amounts ( bowl fulls) daily since start of pregnancy till now. Vomitting blood on occasion as well. Have not left home except for gynae appt in the past month. Was hoping for hospital leave, but gynae did not grant it as baby is otherwise doing well. MC fully utilities too. And even so gynae gives 1 day for each time im admitted. Have been feeling emotional everyday, somehow worse at night, crying for no particular reason. Feeling unsure if I don't deserve HL because every mother goes through this discomfort and I should learn to suck it up? But I'm really really miserable. Bawled in clinic from the pent up Feeling of frustration and hopelessness, but gynae says she can write me a letter to take annual leave if i want. With regards to the symptoms - just need to endure as part of pregnancy. (For vomiting I have tried all medicines including maxalon, diclectin, ondansetron, dimenhydrinate at max doses but it doesn't work). Back pain taking panedine which works plus minus. Sigh what should I do?

Post meal Glucose testing
Hi is it ok to test post meal Glucose testing after 2hours? As in 6.07pm eat but test the post meal at only after 830pm? And for late night posting n post dinner testing need at least 3hours apart, more than 3hour test ok?
Baby care arrangement after Maternity leave ends
How do you all arrange baby care after your maternity leave ends? Besides infant care (too ex), if asking my MIL/Mother to take care, what arrangement is the best? I can’t part with my baby and am thinking of quitting, worry about my MIL/mom parenting style different from mine.. but My husband and I have to work from 8/9-6pm and need to OT at times.. if need to bring my baby to mom house and pick up at night is going to be so tiring..
Belly binder recommendations
Any mommies have any belly binder to recommend? There are so many brands out there. Are they all the same? It’s about time for me to buy one but just not sure which one to buy. Any difference between csect or natural? I’m hoping for natural birth. #pleasehelp #FTM
Snack after post meal for Glucose testing
Hi mummies who are doing Glucose testing at home, can I check if in between meals (eg 2hours after lunch at 3pm and has done post meal pricking), then after which at around 4pm or 5pm feel hungry can we eat snacks? And if we do snacks eg 5pm, normally dinner pricking at pre meal at 6pm for dinner is the timing? If gt snack in between b4 post meal and before next pre meal timing must be how long apart? In my above case, 5pm i snack, 6pm I do pre dinner testing is that OK? Or do I need to wait 2hours till 7pm b4 I can have my pre dinner testing?
