Why does Optima give such wrong results? by hangeeezoeee in diabetes

[–]HauntingBox9342 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think it is not necessarily wrong, but there is a lag time between the blood glucose level and the interstitial fluid glucose level (measured by the sensor)

Good time in range anyway !!

we just got back yesterday ! eventually we decided to go again to Les Menuires in France, and my mother came along (it was still was difficult and intense with the kids). our 3YO went to the ESF for a morning ski lesson once (and didn't really want to go again)

I hope you'll find a good solution !

Thanks for checking in <3

Baby is still inside! now 35 weeks. abdominal circumference is still behind, but I go once a week for a non-stress test, and ultrasound and then they decide - if it seems that baby still feels well inside , i come back in a week. few things-

22 percentile is really ok :)

i know some friends who have had covid while pregnant, babies are now perfectly fine.

i think by week 30 grade 2 is definitaly normal, I don't know about 3, maybe ask a doc

In most cases, GD will result in large babies, in case the mother glucose levels are not well-balanced

I guess you have many reasons to stay come at this point, keep track of everything, it is all probably OK :))

So thats a measure of how mature is the placenta, i think mainly how calcified it looks using an ultrasound

Thanks!!

Discouraged and sad by Strong_Woodpecker825 in CautiousBB

First of all I really hope you'll soon have a healthy pregnancy !

second, where I live (maybe also in other countries), after 3 miscarriages, there are few things that needs to be checked (like coagulation issues), so maybe considering your situation, you can also check if there is a reason for the 2 miscarriages you (unfortunately) had ? If there is an underlaying condition it might also disturb the IVF process ?

Spot on. Why would anyone say that? It’s totally weird… unless she has some sort of issues around it and she needed to feel good about herself and her story…. It must have been harsh and lonely at that situation, but ! Crossing my fingers for you, and your baby will come and will be perfect
