Blah

I got scoldings from the doctor about my blood sugar level.

So now I have to eat very carefully again.

Which means I have to cut out rice (and other starches---not to mention any candy), which will make me a very grouchy old lady.

Happy birthday Jill!!

Also, don't forget to log into this for me! :D

I did that for you yesterday. I think we may be your most distant friends - Two oceans and a continent away.

Wow, sorry you have to watch the carbs and sugar. That's basically what sustained me (and made me gain 70 pounds) during my pg.

Are you at risk for gestational diabetes? I sure hope not, I read up on it and it sounds scary. :(

Other than that, how's the pregnancy going? Is Skylar excited to be a big brother?

Best take care. You really don't want to end up on insulin...

I was on metformin before we got preggy. At 12 weeks they switched me to insulin as it doesn't affect the baby. It isn't so bad really, but you really do have to watch your blood sugars (lots of finger poking - I look like a pin cushion!) and the insulin injections have left me looking battered - literally. I have huge bruises and many smaller ones all over my tummy and thighs (real attractive let me tell ya).

Anyhoodle, be good to yourself and hope you're feeling well.
