The air in our room is on full blast and my hubby says its like a meat cooler.. lol, But if he turns it down I could be dead asleep and wake up sweating. I have that thing blasted and my room is like 58 degrees. Plus I try to stay on his scheduale so I can be cool during the day, but it sucks because I never seem to get anything done. Thank God he works four on and four off. LOL, I have my fingers crossed and wishing luck your way!

Australia is interesting, but a whole lot bigger than the U.S. I mean, you have to travel much further to get from one town to another, and much of the countryside is the same for many miles around, so to see someplace different, you have to travel for like, days. We spent a year in the U.S. and I just couldn't get over the short distances between major centers and the incredible differences from just a few miles further south or west or whatever. We were in Indiana, but traveled by AmTrack from San Francisco to get there, so saw a lot of pretty places. I wasn't much impressed with the way of life in Indiana though, and happy to leave after a year. Here in North Queensland is very nice, in climate, and it's a tourist/hippie kind of area, which is great in terms of the laid back lifestyle and easy-going ways. Nice to not be sweating like a lot of you guys are, for sure. Guess it'll get kinda hot around Christmas - New Year, but hopefully I'll be fitting back into my little swimming suits by then!!

Oh Geez Nat...I am so sorry. I don't know what to say, other than I am right there with you and your not alone...no matter what. It helps to connect with those going through the same thing, that's for sure. Hang in there, and let me know how your appointment goes.

I am doing ok...depresseed now that I am in the full swing of monitoring this GD...my fingers are sore, the diet sucks and I cant get my levels down...and trying to do this while holding down a FT job is really rough for sure.
I know...I know 9.5 weeks to go. I actually wanted to enjoy some of this pregnancy, and I am just not...it has been torture for me every step of the way it seems.
Anyway, I had better get to bed.
Huggs and Love,

We're just coming out of Winter now, and the weather is beautiful - at least the temperatures are. It's been sorta rainy for a couple of weeks now, and looks like the forecast says more of the same right through this week too. But it is warming up nicely. I'm able to pack away the blankets and jumpers again. Being coastal North Queensland, we only get a few weeks of cool weather each year, and not all that much uncomfortably hot, either. Baby's first clothes will be pretty cotton dresses - of which I've already accumulated dozens!! Just love buying baby clothes, they're so CUTE!!


*Baby-Mine* - Monday, 21 July
yeah really, if MY in laws had the nerve to make me feel that way, i'd tell them exactly where to go and just HOW they can GET there!! lol
who are they to make her feel that way when SHE'S the one that has to deal with it?? some people are so self righteous!

*Baby-Mine* - Monday, 21 July
yeah i still have to check my blood 4 times a day. he wants me to pretend that i am since he considers me "borderline" he doesnt want it to turn INTO GD when it could easily be avoided.

*Baby-Mine* - Monday, 21 July
yeah, she was an idiot though. how do you choose your "pride" over your baby's safety??
oh well, they're both fine now so i guess that's all that matters.
i went to go see an OB on fri. my dr wanted to make sure we're doing the best course of action. and he told me he doesnt consider me a diabetic. he said my numbers were alittle outta whack, but he considers me more "borderline" than an actual diabetic, and he still wants me to monitor it and do the diet and excercise.
i was very relieved!
when you did the 3 hr did they make you drink 2 of those drinks?

Lucky! I am sweating like a stuck hog in my house! We only have an airconditioner in one room for my husband, he works graveyard. Have a great time on the water!! Have some fun for me!

I bought quite a few maternity clothes fairly early on, so as far as having something to wear, I'm pretty much okay. Sort of rotating between the same couple of dresses and about 3 tops/pants outfits. Getting a little tiresome, but as I said, I'd rather be buying stuff for when Baby gets here than buying more maternity dresses, at this point. Hope you got some nice things tho. A couple of months with nothing to wear would be pretty uncomfortable!!

Hope your weekend's been nice. It's Monday morning here but we have a long weekend so another day off today. It's supposed to be show holiday, and we'd like to go to the show, but it looks like being another wet miserable kinda day. We'll see. Hopefully it will fine up enough to go have a look at the show sometime through the day.

My Dr's Nurse called me this morning she said she was in the office and told me I passed the only number that was a little high was my third blood draw. My fasting was 71 she said that was great but I felt like a zombie and didn't feel to great after that drink. ick, Yeah my husband went with me to keep me company and he ended up with a little cut from my finger nail on his hand cause I was sqeezing his hand so hard. lol, I am keepin my fingers crossed for you! I hear that most of us girls fail the first but pass the fasting one!! I know 10 more weeks and we get to see our little ones!! I cant WAIT!!

Thanks.

I feel like some new maternity clothes would be nice, but we're getting so close now, that it hardly seems worth the investment! Think I'll just make do.

Your tubing does sound fun, even if you can't join in. Hope your day is awesome!

Hey Nat,
Today was busy for sure...went to mandatory C-section class, followed by the nutritionist, followed by lunch, then a trip to see the nursery set we want, and babies r us---today was a half day following this diet and figer-sticking...not fun----I hope to the Lord you pass this test...I have all my fingers crossed for you! I beleive the frequency of meals will help me out though to keep my hunger down...

I am totally excited for you ---congrats on the nursey...what brand? I am in love with this Romina set...its beautiful beechwood and will cost me a crazy amount of money...almost $4,000!!! Uggh!--(This includes the convertible crib, mattress, dresser and changing station.) Of course this is why I will need to go back to work, because of course, my baby will need to be spoiled and have everything...LOL

Tell your hubby, you come first now, my dear...so the AC it is!!!

Are you going to baby classes yet? We have a great instructor...we are very lucky.

Well hang in there and keep cool this weekend...it is totally disgusting out!
Huggs and Love,
Lori Beth

Hi there, I took my three hour test today and I felt so sick after drinking that goo again, I just about threw it up in the parking lot of the hospital between pokes. :) Luckly I kept it down, but the doctor had to poke the same vein four times, ( I hate needles so my veins hide..) and of course now I have a massive bruise on my right arm. Which is crazy due to the fact that I dont bruise very easy at all. How did your test come back?

Actually I feel okay this morning, as far as the nausea goes. And the weather has fined up, so having a lovely day, so far! We rode down to the morning markets and bought some fruit and hand-made jewelery, then stopped for a few groceries. It was nice.

Nat,
That lower pain is the ligaments that are basically holding everything together in your lower abdomen...I usually get this as well, typically when I am standing or walking for long periods of time...nothing to worry about.
I go to the doc tomorrow for my GD diet I will be living on for the next 2.5 months---oh yes...and the finger pricks begin shortly thereafter 4x a day, begining on Sunday...sucks for me. I only hope everything goes well for you and you pass, so you don't have to deal with this mess!...hang in there!
Love and Huggs,
Lori Beth

yeah i REALLY dont want a c section, but at this point i'm fine with whatever as long as she's delivered safely and she's healthy.
hopefully we can keep our blood sugars under control so we DONT have ginormous babies!
my aunt had GD with her 2nd daughter and the baby was really big, i think 9 or 10 lbs, and they wanted to do a c section, but her in laws for some reason were so condescending about it and pretty much made her feel like she wouldnt be a real women if she didnt push her out. so she refused the c section and went into labor on her own, and had an awful time pushing her out, the had to use forceps and the dr was literally yanking the baby out, and her shoulder go messed up in the process. she couldnt use it for a while, and now she can, but like when she runs or something its sorta limpy and her side. my aunt was an idiot

This is the first time I've ever had a test for GD, so maybe it's kind of a recent thing. Or I've just lived in odd places, where they're less thorough with antenatal testing and such!

Most of my pregnancy symptoms seem to have been quite manageable lately, but this morning I have nausea again, just like the morning sickness I had back in first trimester. Uggh!!

judi - Friday, 18 July
Oh, so sorry hon. I thought you meant your pregnancy with your daughter. But yeah, we're getting close now, and should expect healthy babies!
