Negative response to pregnancy announcement

I can’t help but be a little down at my dad’s reaction to me telling him I’m pregnant. For reference I’m a 30 year old married mother of a 13 month old, I have my own home and I work. I have only just told him (I’m almost 4 month pregnant) because I’m undergoing some tests to see if there are any chromosome concerns...

Failed my 1 hour glucose test

Just found out I failed my 1 hour glucose test badly 😫 (177). I was so not worried because I passed with my first pregnancy and now I feel stupid. The 3 hour test sounds miserable, I have to be at the lab office for 3.5 hours. I’m really hoping that I pass the 3 hour test. I feel bad that I’ve been putting my baby…

Low Blood Pressure…. Worry?!

Today at a medical appointment my BP was 87/56. The nurse kept asking me over and over if I felt ok. She said it was very low so she was concerned. I have always been told my BP reads slightly low but no one has ever shown that much concern… Should I be worried, now she has been panicking.
