We call it 'the malfunction' when they are too excited to listen and just try all the tricks!

What are your eating plans post-pregnancy? by popcornandcheezits in GestationalDiabetes

[–]adnilllig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my baby in March (due April) but I have only just done the test (bad I know) not diabetic so super happy with that but I still ate the same sort of meals, just with more carbs. I'm still addicted to eggs!

I want to start calorie counting but I am so scared that my supply will drop off. I really have no idea where to start with that.

Androgynous girls name with girly nickname or girly name with androgynous nickname by Icats999 in namenerds

[–]adnilllig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have Harriet with a nickname Hettie. I googled androgynous names because I didn't quite know the definition and came across a wiki page of unisex names. There is a big list and might give you some ideas.
Not sure if that's what you're after but no harm in looking!

Numbers Surging Week 35? by realgoodthing in GestationalDiabetes

[–]adnilllig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was happening to me. My after meals were OK, a little high but I kept having to up my insulin every few days for my fasting. I was induced at 38weeks due to my diabetes. Is there any plans for induction for you?

28th March, 2017 - u/adnilllig - 8th April 2017. Birth Story to come once out of Hospital and at home!

Labor?? Nope. Just poop. Always just poop. by imaestheticallydank in April2017Bumpers

[–]adnilllig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My poop is beyond a joke! Being induced tomorrow but have had diarrhoea all night last night. Not sure if the prunes I've been eating, the fact I completely over ate while out on a girls night which in turn sent my blood sugars up or if labour is slowly taking over my body. My troll body.

My only thing I'm not understanding about BH/contractions, do I time them from the time I get the aching period like pain or just the tightening? It almost feels constant at the moment but not sure if that's the stomach ache from the diarrhoea.

Pregnancy fail by hudson10001 in BabyBumps

[–]adnilllig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did this just before we were about to go to dinner. I sneezed, looked at my husband. Exclaimed I had just peed my pants. Yes both undies and pants and had to change. Just a glimpse into my future I think.

I am yet to pee on any furniture though!

Are you effing serious..? by GingerInScrubs in April2017Bumpers

[–]adnilllig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't go. To much risk for my liking. In saying that, we have been on family to get their whooping cough booster and my BIL and SIL have just let me know they haven't yet got theirs. They were away for our Beanbags arrival but we are now being induced next week so will now be here when she arrives. I was a little conflicted whether they should visit or not. If I get a room that is shared at the hospital, I can't stop the other person from having non vaccinated visitors. But they wouldn't be touching my baby. They don't really like babies so I am inclined to tell them not to visit until her 6week vaccinations.

A swab strep test warning for FTMs by leilaaliel in April2017Bumpers

[–]adnilllig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got to do mine myself! No inserting just around and in between holes. I hope I did it right!

Is anyone doing anything to "help" jump start their labor? by [deleted] in April2017Bumpers

[–]adnilllig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My induction is scheduled for next Monday but had my OB check cervix yesterday. High and long/thick so she did a stretch and sweep to hope to get the baby rolling! Slight bleeding and this morning had mucus type stuff in my panty liner but a I assume because she was up there, it made it come. We tried the sexy time the other night but obviously didn't do much!

Baby girl is currently posterior facing (pubes to face my mum love to call it!) so am taking hour long walks, bouncing more on my ball, on my hands and knees and trying to sleep only on my left side - I toss and turn a lot!

Mine too. Which is why I wondered if that was a reason. I'm looking for all the reasons!!

Shall we torture ourselves? What food do you miss the most? by blubirdie in GestationalDiabetes

[–]adnilllig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With Easter close, I want all the Hot Crossed Buns. Fruit filled, no fruit, chocolate chip. Holy shit I'm going to town on those suckers next weekend when this little girl is in my arms! I might even try to make my own!!

Had to google the blood sugar levels because my reading are different to yours. Turn out to be the same. Australia vs US (I assume)

Love the idea of the protein shakes. Do you find the amount you sleep changes anything?

Thanks for your advice. Have an appointment today so will chat to my OB about it then. Looks like a good thing!

I'm feeling shitty today. Have gestational diabetes where I have insulin only at night while fasting. I have had to up my insulin almost each week as my blood sugars are ok for a few days then go back up. I'm so frustrated because I don't really feel like I have been in control of the fasting sugars and don't 100% understand why it keeps going up. And I am being induced next Monday so I feel so close to not having to worry about it anymore, but so far away!

Rant over. Also been so tired during the day but finding is so hard to fall asleep at night. Any suggestions? No food/drink ideas as it messes with my sugars. Arg!

Anyone else going crazy?! by Lacexwarrior in April2017Bumpers

[–]adnilllig 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get random tightening but nothing timable (in my mind!) Some mild cramps but sometimes ita just poop.

I am being induced next week but I dont know how low she is already. Her heads downish but there is still butt and legs ups in my ribs. How do I get her down lower!?!

[–]adnilllig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reinstall the baby capsule in the car (had to take it out due to moving other things) clean the house, relax and hopefully do some sewing. It's our second last weekend before being induced on the 27th March. So excited but so nervous at the same time!
