I got a call from Dr. S' (my normal doc) nurse. It's official! The hcg test results show me at 4 weeks since conception. (At least, as of Wednesday.) That makes sense as we had a little rendezvous on June 10. It's kind of odd to know the actual date this baby was conceived. I promise that, unlike my mother, I will never brag about this to the kid. How embarrassing! Heh.
My thyroid levels have shot up. Pre-pregnancy we had it down to 4 something. It's currently 7.7. Needless to say, we're upping the dosage of thyroid meds. I'll stay on Metformin until the OB tells me otherwise. Since it took us 6 years and the only thing that has changed in the past year is my thyroid and insulin, I'm guessing those are the hint. I really want to stay on both medicines. I know the thyroid will stay for sure (Is it being so high right now a risk of miscarriage?) but the Metformin is up in the air.
I saw a photo of eggs benedict last night on "The Colbert Report", I thought of vomiting. Wooo, you're gonna be a fun baby!
I should have an OB appointment shortly. I was kinda urked when the nurse said "You have diabetes, right?". Nuh-huh! Doing my best to keep from it. I'm insulin resistant. She replies, "Oh, I'm sure you'll get in very soon". What a punk! Hehehe
