Full transcript
Ms Ferreira, your glucose tolerance test results came back today, and I'd like to go through them carefully with you before you leave the clinic.
Está bem, doutora. Eu fiquei um pouco tonta depois de beber aquela solução doce, mas não senti mais nada de diferente.
Your reading was slightly high, at seven point two millimoles, which suggests gestational diabetes, but it isn't dangerous if we manage your diet and activity carefully.
Nossa, fiquei preocupada. O que eu posso comer, então? Tem algum alimento que eu deveria evitar completamente?
I'll refer you to a dietitian at Logan Hospital, who can give you a personalised meal plan before your next scheduled appointment.
Tudo bem, vou procurar a nutricionista. Posso continuar fazendo exercício, ou é melhor eu parar por enquanto?
You shouldn't do high-impact exercise like running or aerobics classes, but gentle walking or swimming for thirty minutes daily is safe and helpful.
Entendi, vou fazer caminhadas então. Mas ultimamente tenho sentido uma dor forte nas costas, principalmente à noite.
For your back pain, I'll arrange a physiotherapy referral through the antenatal clinic here at Logan Hospital, usually within one week.
Que bom, obrigada. Quando vai ser a minha próxima consulta e vou precisar fazer mais algum exame?
Let's book your next appointment in two weeks, along with an ultrasound to check the baby's growth and heartbeat, if that suits you.
Perfeito, duas semanas está ótimo para mim. Meu marido vai tentar vir junto para ver o ultrassom.
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
