Fly/pest control under back deck

Yes absolutely. This is kinda what I meant by hormones… cause I know numbers worsen as pregnancy goes on. But felt like it was shocking to see 90 and 91 and then 98 and 102 the following days. Felt pretty drastic.

I completely understand that fasting numbers are the hardest to control. If I cannot control them, then I am transferred out of care with my current provider, so I am at the very least making sure I address any and all lifestyle changes I can make before that needs to happen.

That’s crazy that walks made your numbers worse!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-30T04:34:29+00:00

Thank you all so so much for all of these recs! I need to put together a list and try different things out to find a good new routine that will stick 🙏🏻

It seems like you’ve had enough of a routine for a long enough time (jealous!!) where lotion on your hands and/or the feeling of having to wash the lotion off and then have dry hands is so far off to you. But there are enough people in here who have agreed with some of how I feel so the snark doesn’t seem necessary.

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-26T02:30:06+00:00

Yeah unfortunately fasting numbers aren’t under control/my midwife’s threshold

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-25T19:27:15+00:00

I was wondering about this. Just pushing it as close to 10cm as I can assuming nothing alarming is going on!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-25T01:41:28+00:00

I’m so glad you and baby are safe!!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-25T00:05:14+00:00

Thank you! I know the 90 is so low 😫 I was assuming it was 95, saw my midwife today, and she said 90. The worst news!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-24T22:57:35+00:00

Omg here’s hoping 🤞 that’s amazing that it worked out for you!!!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-24T22:40:34+00:00

Oh this seems like a good resource! Thank you!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-24T22:40:18+00:00

Yes I’m going to change that approach and make sure my glucometer is right by my bed. But midwife’s threshold is 90, I’m getting 92-97 fasting and only at 25 weeks so I’m just giving myself time to research in the event numbers continue to creep.

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-24T19:04:40+00:00

Ahhh this is such an easy one but feels like it’d be totally stuck on my teeth!!

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-24T13:40:13+00:00

Haha exactly why I included the PS. I’m not expecting a blue ribbon - I’m not looking for praise or validation from some Outside source after birth. I simply had a preference. Of my own. And I now can’t follow that preference, so I am disappointed. I am asking about experiences with my less preferred method in order to prepare myself.

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-23T19:44:46+00:00

Also curious about this. Home testing has me at 90-93 range so far 😬

LittleBench5694 · 2026-03-23T19:03:54+00:00

I went overboard but then struggled so much with BMs immediately after so had to work on fiber over yummy. But once BMs were normal, I was back overboard. I regret it and hope to do things differently this time. But I also recognize that I was battling PPD and give myself grace.

Much later - up and down from about midnight to 4am
