tngrl3 so many hugs!! Iโm glad they moved the date up for you! I know youโll be so relieved when sheโs out and safe! โค๏ธ I was annoyed with all the extra monitoring at first but now I look forward to the appointments and getting all that extra reassurance baby is doing okay. Baby did well at the NST this morning. I saw my favorite doctor and he said itโs to be expected for my numbers to get better now. He took me off my medicine and said we will just keep a close eye on baby to make sure the placenta is holding up well. I was having a lot of contractions at the NST so he isnโt sure Iโll make it to an induction. He approved for me to go to 39 and 5 but Iโm still waiting for them to call and finalize it. Two weeks from today he will be here or almost here! I canโt believe it!

tngrl3 that must be pretty stressful, Iโm sorry, itโs so hard when things are outside of your control but happening within your own body. Youโve done a wonderful job.

strawberrykiki ahh 2 weeks, so exciting! I hope you can enjoy being off the meds and have smooth sailing from here. My guy will be here in 4 weeks from yesterday and that seems so surreal! Glad yours is doing well on the NSTs.

strawberrykiki glad the appointment went well! Sounds likely you will get your wish to avoid induction based on the NST and doctor statement! So exciting!

My steroid shots have totally jacked my numbers. I knew they would and my high risk OB and I discussed that risk . It's making me feel bad and I'm really having to limit my carb intake. Hopefully in a day or so they will settle down or I will deliver! One way or another I only have a few more days of this left! New csection date is January 30th. Can't remember if I updated that.

Sorry the crappy numbers are getting to you, remember thereโs really only so much thatโs in your control and a bad day or two of numbers isnโt the problem with GD, itโs a long game. Hang in there, soooo close!

I'm already planning what I will eat in the next few days!

Hey anyone still here and grumpy about it? ๐ I am less than 3 weeks out from delivery now and all I can think about is how Iโm going to eat after... and how done I am with injections! Iโm at 6 per day now and I feel like managing this is a lot of work. I want to eat convenience foods because Iโm so tired but they just arenโt good for my numbers.
I want to burn a bag of sprouted wheat bread and a jar of natural peanut butter in a ceremony when this is over.

Tlex Iโm still here! Iโm being induced on Monday if he doesnโt come before then. My numbers have greatly improved in the past couple weeks. My doctor took me off medicine because I was getting too low. Iโve been eating some things that I wouldnโt have been able to before. I will be so happy not to have to prick four times a day anymore! Iโm ready for some chocolate chip pancakes and a turkey sandwich from Jersey Mikeโs!

hrh argh Iโve been making some crappy choices too, I especially canโt be arsed to go to the grocery store as often as I need to and that results in me eating super small portions of the kid snacks we always have on hand and yeah, you know exactly where that goes. I did have my best ever numbers today! Which is pretty sad because it just means not once did I go over. I email with my endo tomorrow, hopefully no more adjustments needed for the weekend. Iโm excited that weโll be having our babies so close together!

Tlex lol that's exactly it here, too! Darn kid snacks and lunches. I made them mac and cheese for lunch today; I can have like 1/3 of the box max which is not a meal. But it was there and made and easy. Ugh. Yay for a good day of numbers! Take the win, hope it continues through the weekend for you. I'm so glad too our kiddos will be so close! โค๏ธ
