The ‘Berry’ Pregnancy Diaries – week 28

Wednesday 4th December – 28w Hello 3rd trimester! I also had to starve from 10pm tonight, for my GTT tomorrow. I hate this bit… Thurs 5th December – 28w 1d GTT day.

I still look tiny I think, but I was fat to start with… Saturday 30th November – 27w 3d Tonight we had our first visit of this pregnancy to the antenatal ward.
