oh Didi, I'm so sorry to hear your levels are going up - they often do go up because of the placenta, nothing to do with what you're eating. Can you ask if the endo can put you on tablets instead of insulin? I'm sure i've heard some PG women in here on tablets and not having to inject. Or can you get your DH to do the insulin for you if need be? All the best for Tues I'll be thinking of you
Jewell - thanks so much hun, your post gave me one of those pathetic smiles amidst the tears! Totally agree with the yadda yadda!!!
MamaSpice - I'm not officially eating for GD yet... but I'm not eating normally either IYKWIM. Tbh, if I'm gonna get over 8 I just wanna get it over and done with it - I hate all this mucking around. This morning was 7.8.... creeping ever closer. Haven't done lunch yet as I had a HUGE row with DH and didn't eat till really late. So saying, felt a bit funny so did some randoms and they were 9.9 and 10.4... . I had baked beans on toast for lunch (TWO whole pieces of bread) mainly cos that always sent me high last PG (even with only 1 slice bread) and according to my endo, if I wasn't GD, I should NOT go over 8... so yeah sounds kinda stupid I guess, but I wanna know one way or the frickin' other! Then I can bawl my way through the grief stage and onto acceptance...
How is the insulin going for you? How are you finding the jabs?
