The MJH Diabetes Nurse Educator suggested I make a list of things from Tom to bring me in the hospital after the baby is born. That is what I’ve got so far. I’ve been writing it down in the back of the log book that came with my meter. I should also put granola cereal and lots and lots of fruit on there, because that has also raised my blood sugar so I haven’t been able to have it.
I’m just too damn sweet.
I’ve gotten in the habit now of eating meat and vegetables and not much else. I can’t imagine that it’s very good for me to have so much red meat. (Before you say anything, I have had enough chicken!) I wonder how hard it will be to revert back to cereal and applesauce for breakfast. A sub would be nice. I miss sandwiches.
BUT!
My numbers this week have been declining. I’m thrilled. I’ve gone from 135 – 170 on 9/4-9/6 to 87 – 127 so far this week. I guess, that doesn’t mean anything to you unless you are diabetic, but I’m supposed to keep it under 120. The MJH DNE said the placental hormone production peaks at 36 weeks, which was 9/9.
So although we’re not done pricking and bleeding and metering and logging yet… we’re getting there. Won’t be long now and Tom can bring me all the things on that list! I was so frustrated with the whole thing, I’m glad to have a handle on it.
