30w5d- Feeling Great
By Summer0120 » Posted Nov. 16, 2015 9:12am - 259 views - 4 comments
This baby is confusing me. Yesterday I had only about 2-3 very small BH contractions. That was it. No cramping or anything. A couple hot flashes and woke up in a pool of sweat from a small nap. Other than that... I felt great! I still do today. Looks like the prayers and the talking to her has really helped. Maybe I talked her into staying in there. Lol! I wonder if this could possibly last until my due date? I would definitely be fine with that for planning and financial purposes. I think my little ones got it in their heads that she was coming early, and now they seem to be getting impatient. I was 31w4d when I went into labor with my oldest, and that's only 6 days from now. I just don't see it happening. I'm feeling too good. Unless this is the calm before the storm... lol. I have been doing very well with the GD. In fact, I've been pretty much eating whatever I want. Except for cookies, candy, frappuccinos, etc. But as far as normal food, I have been putting it to the test every time I get a good blood sugar count and it still doesn't spike. I must have a very very slight case of GD for now. They said it could get worse as I get further along, but as of right now I seem to be doing just fine. Sleep still eludes me, but I'm getting more used to it now that I've been sleeping horribly for about 4 months. This is the first week in a long time that I have ZERO doctor's appointments scheduled. Knock on wood. I am so excited about that. I can't wait for next week. I love the holidays. I'm so ready for Thanksgiving!

I did Saturday night during the Iowa Hawkeye game, and my number was 96 two hours later. I just don't get it. How in the world did I fail those tests? Lol! My grandpa makes homemade ice cream for every occasion, and I definitely plan to get a big bowl of that! |

 | Comment from MalPal85 » Posted Nov. 16, 2015 7:49pm Glad you're feeling good and you controlling your number flawlessly. I got the ok today during my appointment that not only do I get a free pass on Thanksgiving but I get a free pass for the rest of my pregnancy. Im. Ot going to push it but I'm sure as hell going to have some ice cream one last time lol. |
