looks like Rose is coming very, very soon! I'll be in touch when she arrives.

adriennella - Monday, 25 August
 that is just way too adorable!!!!

nope...had false labor all day yesterday with contractions every 15. They're back every fifteen now, but I think it's another false alarm. I'm not as moody as I was this morning, though.

How are you?

adriennella - Friday, 22 August
I'll let you know how it goes. I think I might be in labor now. I'm having mild contractions every 30 minutes. It may be a false alarm, but I'm practicing some relaxation techniques any way.

adriennella - Thursday, 21 August
I had a membrane sweep this morning, and during it I told my doctor that I'd changed my mind about natural childbirth. I told her that I wanted the epi now. She laughed at me.

I haven't had a real contraction, so I have no idea what to expect. I'm keeping my options open at this point on the epi. I'll be a hero no matter how I deliver.

How are you doing?

adriennella - Wednesday, 20 August
I wanted to go naturally (no epi, no meds, etc.) which is why I didn't want the IV. They won't let me eat after I get to the hospital and told me that it's standard procedure to give me the IV. I've read a little more and certainly wouldn't want to put my baby at risk for low blood sugars, so I'm going to take the IV. Who knows, maybe I'll also get an epi like you.

Thanks for the advice!

HI, thanks for your response on the diabetes. i am on 4 units before i go to sleep. i will definately make sure i eat every 2 hours. my nurse had said i needed to snack between meals but was never specific about times. it would make sense that 2 hpurs would be great as i normally have a low about 3 hours after eating and it really is a horrible feeling. i have been worried about it happening when driving, especially with my 2 children with me. thanks for all your advice, kerri.x

lorivan - Sunday, 22 June
lol my numbers go down when i eat i have a reversal thing they noticed it before i got preggers. its what made me pre diabetic. ill probably call the dr on wed or thurs. where are you from ?

lorivan - Sunday, 22 June
Lol I know ! that is what i was thinking earlier today ! i was like gee when i have 2 weeks left am i really going to feel like going for a walk to the park ?? i am gradually accepting this. there isn't much i can do but follow the diet. i know my numbers are going to climb. i just keep reminding myself that i don't need to take this personally. it not like i did something to make it happen! i have been using a bag of corn to ice the site right before the needle goes in! it works great. do you know what you are having ?

LoriVan - Saturday, 21 June
omg ! 42 a day ! i hope mine don't get that bad. my numbers usually go down after i eat in the am. i am trying to stay active with doing things like house work or the gym or yard work. i do something everyday! and with 3 other kids it is really not that had to find something lol . i used ice last night so i couldn't feel the needle go in! it took me about 30 mins to finally get it done and over with. hope all is going well with you. take care.

LoriVan - Friday, 20 June
No one ever talks about the failure feelings. I am getting over it though and feeling much better! I was borderline with my last two pregnancies. I saw the endocrinologist today and he was NOT alarmed by my numbers ! That made me feel so good. He wants me to take 8 units of insulin once every night to see if it will help my morning numbers. He told me to eat as well as i can and not to worry so much about trying to following the diet to a tee. He also said that insulin wasnt totally necessary but to be ' perfect' about it he was going to give me some. hope you had a great day!

Well, my doctor has been going with the 14th as my due date from my last period but when we got a sonogram it changed to the 18th from her growth. But my doctor still has been going with the 14th and I will be 9 days over according to her. to me the 18th would be more accurate because it would be going by how big she was. I have another doctors appt in the morning so we will see if she still wants to induce monday morning.

Haileysmom11 - Thursday, 19 June
because im overdue. I wish she would let me wait a little longer to see if i go on my own since there is no medical problems or anything.

Thank you so much for your advise and support with the GD. It really helps to talk to people who are going through it and understand. I meet with the high risk dr. tomorrow so we'll see what he's gonna have me do. Thanks again :)

she said it means that i'm burning fat overnight instead of sugar and that i need to have more carbs before bed. that's why she suggested ice cream. 1 cup of ice cream is equal to 2 carb units (when 1 carb unit is equal to 15 grams of carbs). i'm thinking you're both right because the dinner i had before my only negative result was 2 fried egg sandwiches (1 piece of bread each) with 1/2 slice of cheese each and mayo with water and 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. so, lots of protein and then my snack before bed was a 1 carb unit special k bar with 9 grams of sugar. i've only been doing this a week so i'm sure it's going to take me some time to figure out!

firstbabyd - Tuesday, 17 June
i talked to my dietician yesterday and she said to try 1 cup of ice cream before bed and see what happens. same result today - small amounts. looks like i'll be drinking a glass of milk in the middle of the night tonight. no fun.
