Polyhydramnios

Bugger.
Bollocks.
Pissed off.
Various other expletives.

I have Polyhydramnios again. I had it when I was pregnant with Dylan. It explains why I am ENORMOUS and VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. It also puts me at risk for pre-term labour among other nasty things. Worried and concerned. Seeing OB on Monday for diabetes test as this may well be what's causing it (having had a careful GD diet when pregnant with Harry this may well be why I avoided it with him). Self-prescribing a GD diet anyway from this point on as I really don't want this to get any worse... already feel like a hippo and about as comfortable as if one were sitting on me.

Bollocks.

Meanwhile, we got some absolutely lovely 3D images of the baby today at the growth scan (still 45th percentile btw, which is great). Mum thinks she looks like Harry as a baby and I agree. It was really quite moving to see the 3D images today, both G and I were reduced to some tears, the images were so lifelike and real... quite amazing.

I was going to say the same! How squished does that little person look! And how weird is it to be able to see your insides like that... quite unsettling! :)

Oh Katie, I'm so sorry you have yet more bloody stress. you really so go through so many hurdles wit your pregnancies - it not only doesn't seem fair - it's palpably not fair AT ALL.

I wish there was something I could do to help.

Sending all my psychic energy and complex carbohydrates,
