Well, I met with the doctor today

I saw her to have a preconception consult due to my diabetes. Overall it was very positive. I already had a pretty clear idea of what it would be like to be diabetic with type 2 and not GD and pregnant. It will mean a lot more monitoring and likely induction. Not at all what I want but I have to make peace with it. The nice thing about this OB is that she approaches things pretty holistically. And, I think she's willing to work with me as an individual and not lay down absolutes. So, if the fricking diabetes can be wellcontrolled, then who knows? Maybe we can approach things more naturally.
Anyway, the long and the short of it is that we are probably a go to ttc soon.

Re: Well, I met with the doctor today
That's great news. I love doctors that are willing to individualize care like that instead of just laying down rules.
Is your husband feeling more comfortable now too?
Overall I think that's pretty good news Cheekers. I'm happy you found someone who's willing to work with both your health limits and your personal wishes - it sounds like a good match.
I went through B's pregnancy with a good work friend who's a type 1 diabetic, so similar, but different from you. Anyway, she was due about a week after me, but ended up having her son two days after mine (delivered by the same OB). She had her induction scheduled at 39 weeks, but ended up only getting cervidil before her body kicked into full on labor mode. So not entirely natural, but still relatively intervention-free.
BFP #2 5/27/12. EDD 2/1/13. m/c and D&C 6/21/12.

I hope he is. Sigh...he's really hard to read sometimes. Even when I'm really direct. As far as I can tell, he's a go, though.
Thanks again, everybody!
Just watch. I'll get all hyped up and then I won't even be able to get pregnant. Oy!
I tried a little charting, but my sleep is not regular enough to get a good chart. Grrr
I did get a CBEFM from Sofamonkey. Yay! Now I just have to figure out how to use it.
I definitely want to try and get KU'd ASAP because I'm old darnit. On the other hand, I don't want to stress myself out about it.
