I'm currently 21 weeks pregnant and recently had a blood test that showed my glucose level is 160. I'm worried if this is normal for pregnancy or if it could cause any problems. Can you provide some guidance on this?

I had diarrhea on September 2nd and took a 4mg Imodium tablet at night. Since yesterday, my bowel movements have completely stopped. I'm also experiencing burning and itching in my vaginal area, and there's a thick white discharge. Could this be related to the diarrhea or the Imodium tablet? Are there any OTC medicines or creams I could try for this?

I've been dealing with PCOD and I'm a bit worried. My doctor initially put me on Diane 35, and while I was on it, my periods were regular. After stopping, I had one more regular cycle, but now I've missed two months. My doctor has prescribed duphaston 10mg for five days to try and trigger a period, and then Im supposed to go back on Diane 35 for another three months. Is this a normal plan? Should I be concerned about the missing periods or the medication? Just trying to figure out if this makes sense.

I'm 13 weeks pregnant, and I recently had an ultrasound for NT. The report mentions that the placenta is forming anteriorly, with the lower margin covering the OS, and it states there's grade 0 AFI adequate. Could you recommend a good hospital for treatment and support throughout the rest of my pregnancy? I'm really hoping for a normal delivery. What should I be concerned about or do next?

Feeling your 3-year-old son's heartbeat by placing your hand on his chest can be a normal finding, especially if he's active and healthy. _Possible explanations:_ 1. *Thin chest wall*: Children's chest walls are thinner, making it easier to feel their heartbeat. 2. *Normal cardiac anatomy*: Some people's hearts are more prominent or closer to the chest surface, making the heartbeat more palpable. 3. *Increased cardiac output*: Active children may have a higher cardiac output, making their heartbeat more noticeable. _No cause for concern_: Unless your son is experiencing other symptoms such as: - Shortness of breath - Fatigue - Pale skin - Dizziness - Chest pain
