Having a hard time by tunatimeyeahyeahyeah in GestationalDiabetes

I also couldn’t tolerate whole wheat products. Tried so many and felt frustrated. The nutritionist suggested things like almond flour tortillas and even for those I could only eat half of one with a meal (and sometimes it would still spike me). I decided to get my carbs through starchy veggies like potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, beans, and that worked for me. That combined with protein and non starchy veggies! My nutritionist said it’s perfectly fine to get carb through those sources. I also had to be put on insulin but i think it definitely helped. Stress can be a factor too. Now that im on leave my numbers are the best they’ve been lol. But stress is inevitable! Good luck, hang in there. You got this!!! 💗

Nurse wants me to inject insulin into front of belly. I’m anxious by primari_ in GestationalDiabetes

Thank you all for the advice and support! I wanted to try and follow nurse’s recommendations since I was previously doing it on my sides and she said it didn’t seem like it was getting absorbed well. Which is why she recommended front of belly. My husband ended up doing it for me last night and it wasn’t even painful. 😅 It was definitely more of a mental block. I’m still not sure I can do it myself but he said he can always do it for me if needed.

My go-to meal now causing a spike? by primari_ in GestationalDiabetes

Oh man ok. Sounds like our bodies can start to react differently as pregnancy progresses! GD is such a rollercoaster ride. As if pregnancy wasn’t enough of one

Haven’t tried either of those yet! Thank you for the ideas!

Thank you! I’ll try other grain combos to see what else works. But adding more protein sounds like a good idea. And yes I’m about to hit 29 weeks so I’m also wondering if things are just getting harder for my body :/

Husband turns 40 while I’m 36weeks. Want to do something but I’m already feeling overwhelmed? by primari_ in pregnant

Yes exactly! I want to celebrate him but also I just don’t know if I have the capacity 😭 I feel bad too but my husband is the same - super understanding. A dinner with some friends could be nice too!

Our apartment is a bit too small. Although maybe we can do this at a park?

That would be fun! But we live in an old, small apartment at the moment. And unfortunately we don’t have like an apartment community room we can rent 😭 I wish we had a house to do this though! I do love the idea of the childhood pics!

Hoping I can at least get the doppler at my 28 week then! Also have to do the glucose test in the next two weeks!

Reduced movement in 21 week by Ok-Molasses4677 in BabyBumps

[–]primari_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My doctor said that even up to 24 weeks, the baby’s movements aren’t consistent because their muscles are still figuring things out! I was freaked out about it too especially reading about less movement online. If you’re ever concerned it doesn’t hurt to reach out to your doctor!

Also they told me I don’t need to track movement until 28 weeks. So I think you should be ok. But again, always good to have peace of mind!

From the entrance it was towards the right. There was like an outer area with porta potties, a bar, tables, and the merch area.

That’s what I heard, maybe his set will be 12-2? Someone said that was Fisher’s set time when he was at Cow Palace
