High-Risk Pregnancy

Good news!!

Had our growth ultrasound today! I was soooo nervous, I kept thinking they'd tell me DD was already like 7 lbs or something crazy (she just feels so big!). Well, despite putting little faith in these measurements since they can be off big time, I was ecstatic to be told she's measuring right on schedule (technically a day behind). She's right below 50th percentile. Even her belly, while bigger "percentile-wise" is below 50th! I'm soooo freaking happy! My fastings are still not under control, I've only had one below 95 and we've almost doubled my initial insulin dose... It's been so frustrating and so it's a relief to know my efforts aren't a 100% wasted. :D

  • Glad your little one is doing well.  I go in on Saturday for my measurements, so I'm hoping my little girl is ok too!  I have no idea what my numbers are since I haven't met with my dietician yet, but been doing my best through the holidays!

    Your GD right? you have to fast for sugar checks, I thought you just had to check your sugar levels 30 mins prior to eating. Kinda getting more nervous about the 3rd re- test.

  • Yep GD here! Your fasting is your morning check after having not eaten all night (my doctor says at least 8 hours). Then I check an hour after eating. Or you can do 2 hours. My doctor said choose either 1 hour or 2 and then stick with it.
