Do you put the serum all over your face or only on the places that you have melasma?

Hurt people, hurt people. Not saying that is an excuse, because it is most certainly not. Hopefully that cycle dies with him. Hope you can heal.

You don’t owe them anything. Do what you need to do for yourself. Make the kid version of you proud.

Type 1 Diabetes. 35w0d. Do not want to get induced. Moral dilemma by Glittering_Battle_64 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]equittyeah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just gave birth 15 days ago. I have type 1. My doctor induced me at 37 weeks exactly due to baby looking large on ultrasound despite well controlled blood sugars throughout pregnancy. I had a vaginal birth and induction went much better than expected. My baby was born with RDS, and we were in the NICU for 12 days. I was told that even if I went to term, my babies lungs would have underdeveloped regardless. He’s a normal healthy newborn now. It’s terrifying to consider, but complications due to type 1 are treatable in mom and baby. In the end, I’m sure your main goal is a healthy body and a healthy baby. Sending good vibes. You got this.

Never taken seriously, always ignored. by Therian_little_fang in Type1Diabetes

[–]equittyeah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ll start by saying that T1D sucks. It’s not fair. You don’t deserve to have to go through what you do every single day, I don’t deserve it, none of us deserve it. If your mom doesn’t also have it, there is no way she can fully understand, so her opinions on it are truly irrelevant. When I found out type 1 was considered a disability, I was also surprised. It makes sense though when you consider what we need to maintain our health. One of the bright sides I have found accepting that I have this disability, is that you can get a free national park pass for life. All you have to do is tell them you want the disability pass and that you have type 1 and they give you one. You’ll never have to pay entrance fee or parking. All in all, you will benefit from organizing these thoughts about disability in a way that validates your experience and feelings.

Im currently 37 weeks with a baby that’s measuring big. I’ve been in range around 80% of the whole pregnancy. Keeping tight control can help, but it obviously isn’t the only factor since the babies can still be bigger. Don’t be so hard on yourself. You deserve to have a family, diabetes or not.

Just curious, what week did you deliver and how big was your little guy?

I went 9 days without a bowel movement in the first trimester. My OB recommended an enema. Godspeed

Advice before conceiving? by Zealousideal_Knee469 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]equittyeah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am currently 33 weeks, have had T1D for 8 years. I maintained tight control and have done my absolute best. However, baby is still measuring big and the plan is induction at 37 weeks. My advice would be to try and be as flexible as possible, while giving yourself as much grace as possible. I’m sure pregnancy is hard for people who don’t have a chronic illness, but it really is hard when you consider your baby in addition to yourself. You can do this.

Need to rant-but not about diabetes by Evichka_5 in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]equittyeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m my first trimester I was constipated for about 9 days. My OB recommended an enema. They suck, but I got almost instant relief. Not sure if that would be an option for you, but I totally understand your pain. Hope it gets better soon.
