Well, I’ve been put onto insulin :( so far just at night to try and get my morning glucose numbers in check but it’s horrible. I can’t believe there are people who have to do this throughout their whole lives, it must be so awful for them I feel like this GD is robbing the joy of my final pregnancy and I’m just so bitter. I can’t remember if I noted in my last journal that my plan for a VBAC has basically been shot down my doctor told me this baby will need to come out before 39 weeks, more likely no later than 38 weeks and they’d rather not Induce me due to my temperamental blood pressure, my induction failure with my first, and GD so will likely be a repeat csection for me. I have a consult with my high risk OB again next Friday so I guess I will find out more. Basically I’m down to 8 ish weeks before this baby comes some time mid jan! I haven’t pulled out any of the baby clothes yet They’re still packed in diaper boxes in the nursery closet. They’re all clean but I will wash them all again and figure out which outfits I want to keep as keepsakes from my son and then figure out what I need to buy I haven’t bought this baby anything yet although I did just buy a new stroller that can be a double so I guess that counts. Oh, and I added newborn diapers to this months subscribe and save on my amazon monthly order. But that’s it. I don’t plan on working past Jan 1 so should have a good 2-3 weeks to organize and soak up the time with my son before this one arrives. I’m worried about how he is going to react at first to another baby, he’s such a mamas boy and I’m having some guilt over it. But I do think he will be the most amazing big brother with time He’s so sweet and caring.

 | Comment from Hopeforchildren » Posted Dec. 2, 2019 7:28pm I can sense your frustration and would be just as miserable on the GD diet :(. I am also feeling the same guilt over my 3 y.o. daughter. We'll get through it! I hear there are some beautiful sibling moments too, they better carry the bad ones! |
