Im 27 weeks pregnant (give or take a day or two) & Im worried about diabetes. I went to the hospital yesterday to do a stresstest on the baby & although her heart beat was perfect & u could hear it on the monitor when she moved i wasnt feeling her. It wasnt until they gave me orange juice (for the sugar content) that I started to feel her movement pick up? Is it possible Ive developed Diabetes? Im not scheduled for my blood tests until next week.. Any advice would be great right now... Thank you all in advance

OJ or any sugary drink is common to give you when they are trying to track the babies movements, and from what I've heard your baby moves all the time,you don't feel every kick they don't always kick out either sometimes they move more towards your back, none of this means you have diabetes and unless you have been told otherwise or have a history of diabetes then you're probably fine, having diabetes does not effect your babies movement unless your sugars are sky-rocketed in which if you were in the hospital they would have picked up on something like that.

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
