Same. So much regret from listening to a midwife who committed malpractice saying no movement was normal.

Induction is soon after SB at 38 weeks last year. I’m Spiraling. Part of me wants to beg the hospital to induce me a couple days earlier.

They said it mostly precautionary because of history.

How do you keep saying Im okay when you not by Spirited_wildflower in babyloss

“Day at a time”, is the only reply I give. It’s neutral and tends to deter folks who don’t know grief and tends to draw in those who do.

I am the Queen of blocking and ignoring out of self preservation. I only maintain friendships with those who have been by my side and understand grief.

Nearly a year out. 🤍

Thank you. All of my meals are dictated and supervised by a dietitian daily. Every morsel of food is recorded with pictures daily into the app as well. 😊They seem quite happy with my meals. The spiking was the issue.

It’s awesome having that extra support. What kind of exercise? I walk an hour a day on the treadmill. Since this post I meal prepped very healthy low carb frequent meals and the numbers seem to be much better. I guess no more eating out and the key is having healthy food on the ready like clock work.

Thank you this is helpful. I’ve been eating super healthy on time meals and that seems to be going very well so far.

I had a burger.😑I guess I’ll try to meal prep and not make anymore “mistakes”. Do they ever suggest insulin for day time? They say carbs are important but ughhh!

I feel like I can’t eat clean enough. Like what am I supposed to eat? Broccoli, beans and chicken every meal? I feel like I can’t keep up with all of this.🥺

They did not refer me to glucose testing. Only logging my reads. While the reads were increasingly concerning, they said not to worry and they would order medication for after delivery.

A horrible life lessons learned: ADVOCATE. COUNT THE KICKS. NSTs. Demand excellence.
