I was diagnosed with GD at 7 weeks which made my doctor sit up and take notice. An ultrasound revealed I am carrying fraternal (nonidentical) twins so my story is a little more extreme than my first case of GD with Declan!
Got sick last week and my BGLs went beserk I had no idea how much a cold effects you when you have GD!
I am now 17 weeks and inject 5 times a day 3 x actrapid before meals and 2 x protophane at night and morning.
I have had my dosages increased slightly as it appears that as this TWIN pregnancy progresses my insulin resistance gets worse.
Otherwise i have lost a little weight and all my docs... GP, specialist, midwife, and physician and happy with the progress.
I think the worst part is as I get more preggers and tireder I have started to forget testing times. I think soon I will have to set an alarm to ***** my finger by!
I dont forget the insulin .. just 2 hrs after and even sometimes before ??
Wierd - i will blame the pregnancy and the toddler for my muddlheadedness!
Take care and I look forward to hearing from you all again soon
