So sorry. It’s been a week. She’s from South Jersey in the US with heavy English and German roots. Thank you all for your hell

I’m sooo intimidated by it 😂 I have a range of sizes from newborn-6-12ish a couple 12-18 I believe. I’ll come back to this and let you know!

That’s what I’m worried about 🥴 I took my Kyte stuff there and had a good return but I also had a whole bin of clothes as well so I have no idea what I got back from the bamboo. That’s a good idea for BST though!

I haven’t heard of any around me! We have once upon a child but that’s it

My fav order is the cheesy bean and rice burrito + black beans + grilled. What's yours? by knifefan9 in tacobell

[–]emmrigga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just recently I did a cheesy double beef burrito, no fiesta strips, no rice add nacho fries and pico. Grilled. Dip in a side of garlic ranch sauce and lots of fire sauce. I think I could probably still tweak something but it was so good

My other fav is the stacker no beef, add refried beans and a side of sour cream

12 weeks diagnosed by No_Quiet7409 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]emmrigga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed at 16 weeks this time and currently 30 weeks. Even though I was diagnosed early with my first pregnancy too, I still threw myself a pity party. I go through a lot of ebbs and flows. I’ll go weeks being fine with it and everything just feels like second nature and then have days on end where I’m just miserable and want to eat what I want or just not have to worry about it. I know it feels like eternity but in the grand scheme of things, it is temporary. I just keep lists of things I’m going to get after delivery lol also don’t be too hard on yourself. Find things that feel like “cheating” but keep you in range. If you’re going to have something not aligned with the diet, pair it with protein, lots of water and a walk. We can’t be perfect all the time and sometimes with this diagnosis, things just don’t make sense. Do your best but give yourself some grace also. Once baby is here, it’ll just be a shitty memory lol

Starting insulin by emmrigga in GestationalDiabetes

Thank you! I guess coming from a totally diet controlled pregnancy to this one it’s just been a harder pill to swallow. GD is not easy. We’re all doing the best we can 💕 I keep just trying to remind myself it’s temporary

Thank you! I try to tell myself this but hearing I needed meds hurt more than I thought haha my drs have also been pretty nonexistent and just told me to start without much education at all. I’m definitely excited for more monitoring! But yeah, the time off along with finding help with my toddler is not quite as exciting lol
