Morning all! Feeling a bit bleary eyed today, I was up late doing washing because we finally had enough water to do it (I had been stockpiling dirty clothes for a week as we didnt' have enough house water to wash it all until Dh went and got some yesterday) and then Alister woke at 1.30 and didn't go back to sleep until after 3, then was back up again at 6am. He is dozing now on my bed but I don't have a hope of getting a snooze myself today. Plus DH is back on nightshift tonight. At least with Dh at work I can put Alister in bed with me.
11, I'm pleased that you've been going well on the tests, it's a bit daunting though to have to think, 'gee, do I really feel like that?' when you do them. Once Alister is too big for the bassinette we will put him in a cot in with Lindsay. I will still be able to hear him from our room. I have never worried about monitors for that reason too.
Arte, don't worry too much about the test, it's only a series of questions and it's all multiple choice anyway, so you don't have to write anything down at all. And it only relates to the current past week - not the whole time. Bugger about your fasting levels. I know with my Mum she had GD really bad, and it cleared up after my brother was born, but it was back as type 1 before he was 1yo. Don't let that scare you though, my Mum didn't exactly heed the Dr's advice about giving up smoking and looking after her health better (still doesn't *sigh*) Plus she was 40 by then too. Maybe your body just needs more time to adjust.
Re clothes - If I had to go out somewhere 'good' I would have nothing to wear at all right now and I am loathe to buy new clothes kwim? I still wear a lot of mat clothes too (the ones that don't really look like mat clothes)
Nicknames - I call Alister either "Little Mate" (Lindsay is Mate) or Bullfrog, cause when he sits up his double chin really stands out and he does look like a bullfrog on a rock LOL.
ETA - this is a question you'll find on the test;
In the past week I have been able to laugh and see the funny side of things:
As much as I always could
Not quite so much now
Definitely not so much now
Not at all
