Good to hear you have an appointment with your endo so soon.
I would also perhaps ask him/her about going on to Levemir or Lantus as your long acting insulin. I have to be honest, protophane is not worth the hassle.
I am good at the moment but I have had a really rough time being pregnant this time around (terrrible morning sickness to 27 weeks and then a severe asthma attack at 28 weeks which saw me in hospital for 10 days).
It is definitely harder 2nd time around.
My son in 2 and a bit and is full of energy and wants to be on the go all the time. I also work 3 days a week aswell. Perhaps I should start to slow down a bit.....
Before I had the asthma attack, I was not really well (struggling to breathe does that funnily enough) and my OB said that we were only going to aim for 34 weeks and then get the bub out. Since my asthma has settled, things have improved and by OB said that we could probably aim for 36 weeks. When she said that, I nearly cried because I am soooooooo over trying to control the damned diabetes side of things as well as all the other stuff you have to deal with.
Anyhow, whatever happens, I will be just glad to have it all over and have this baby arrive healthily.
My son was born at 34 weeks and really dont see the problem with No 2 coming at 34 weeks aswell. The only down side would be the lengthy stay in special care for bub, which makes it difficult.......especially with a toddler.
I really cant wait for the birth (c-section) and even though I had a really tough time with the last one, I know it doesnt last forever and everything heals and things get better.
Have you decided where you are going to have your bub yet?
