I am for you that you have bub early, that way you don't have to put up with GD any longer. My first bub came 3 weeks early, I am hoping this one will come early too but some how I doubt it. I am already having it at 38 wks due to having to have another caesar, so I've got exactly 5 wks from today. Time is going to drag, I just know it!!!
Tennykins - Thanks for wishing me luck for my appointment this week. All I can think of is food. I feel like eating something now but have to wait til I do my test. We have a block of chocolate in the fridge that I could easily get stuck into but of course I cant.
Leigh - I hated the waiting for testing time. In the end I was eating little bits of dark chocolate or that lite cadbury one. I couldn't resist and not have any. Have you tried any?
Katones - Not long to go. COME ON LITTLE BUBBA, YOU CAN COME OUT NOW!
I am a chocoholic but haven't tried any yet. Might buy some of the cadbury lite one on Friday when I go grocery shopping. I am dying to have some ice cream too coz the weather is soooo hot up here, once again too scared to try it. I know everything is trial and error so I should just give it a go and see.
Xander Jordan was born 1.35am Wed 25th Sep! He was 7lb 7oz (I was 39+1 btw).
He's just gorgeous. BSL's all good. He spent two days under lights in Special Care due to jaundice. We got home last night after a whopping 8 days in hossie (had 3 lots of prostin gel before being induced).
And I'm just soooo in love. He is amazing. Sleeping like a log (probably cos of the jaundice and feeding like a trooper). I'll be back with more later.
WEll girls,
Double damn and bugger. Had my gd follow up today with registras and specialists. the whole shebang. They have put me on two lots of insulin. Daytime and nightime long acting. Feeling a bit depressed and a failure, but i was totally up front with the doctors.
The doctor said is there anything more you could do to reduce your bsl"s. I said only if i sew my lips together!!There is nothing more i can do, i would starve.
The endocrine guy said it was important to get this all underway ASAP as i could only have another 7 weeks to go. Made it all hit home;a bit to REAL for me!So now we try and not worry and hope for the best.
Pollyanna - don't feel like a failure! I had to go on insulin too. I said to someone on here once before to think of it as medicine for bubs and it made her feel better about it all. The good thing about being induced is you don't have to go through those really uncomfortable last two weeks! GL with it all.
