Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi!

Hope everyone is well! After my appointment at the specialist I found out that I do indeed have gestational diabetes. They gave me a machine and I have to take my blood sugar after every meal. Hopefully I can control it with diet, otherwise I have to take insulin - and I really don't think I can give myself a needle! Oh well, it is what it is so I will suck it up and deal with it. People deal with this their whole lives, I can certainly make it through the next two months!

I had my "surprise" baby shower at work yesterday; what a blast! Lots of nice gifts, but my favorite was a blanket that the girls knit themselves. Played lots of shower games; I really enjoyed a pictionary type game we played in teams - watching our politically correct male boss try to draw "dialating" was a riot.

It seems I have appointments all the time now; but I am looking forward to my u/s at the end of the month to see how my bump is doing. I know the diabetes can make babies quite big! We'll see if I can beat Tryingx3, lol!

That's all my news, good to hear from everyone!
