Reply to "Problematic reaction to medical tests..."

I found that pregnancy threw up loads of issues for me. It was a really triggering time.

For me, I felt vulnerable once the bump began to show - and as I got bigger I obviously couldn't run away if I wanted to. I found the medical tests etc difficult and having people comment on my body hard. I've struggled with aspects of ED's so that was also problematic in pregnancy.

During my last pregnancy I was diagnosed with GD - then 10 days later saw my consultant, who said it was just under the cut-off, so I was fine. ??!!?!?! My baby was fine 6lb 12oz (so I doubt any GD!).

I understand your feeling though - which is what I'm trying to say with all this rambling!
