Hi everyone
I just wanted to intoduce myself to the 'Due in July' club. According to my OB I am due July 26 2006 :) i am 30yo and have been married to my highschool boyfriend for nearly 9 years.
From the title of this thread you probably have guessed that i am a type one diabetic. I have been T1 for about 12 years. This pregnancy was soooo planned I feel like I have been pregnant for years! Feeling a little bit anxious about pregnancy. I think when you already have one problem that makes you a 'high risk' pregnancy :mad: that is probably expected. But so far that part of life is under control.
More distressing to me at the moment is that I have been having very small amounts of brown discharge. Once yesterday afternoon and again this afternoon. Today I called the midwives at the hospital I am booked into and she said it can be quite normal. She said that unless I get pain or the colour / quantity changes not to worry. Does this sound like good advice? :confused: My other symptoms have not changed. I still feel pregnant.
Anyway... good luck to everyone. Hoping we all sail thru to glorious new beginnings in July.
