so i do have to go on insulin

i'm just sitting here crying at my desk. i feel like such a failure and i'm so fed up with my stupid body not cooperating with me. i have to go in for 2 appointments now on christmas eve to learn how to do the insulin injections and for a more full work-up from the endocrinologist.
it just kills me that i have to deal with one more stressor this pregnancy. i feel like no matter what i do, it's not good enough and if this is any indication of the kind of mother i'll be when she's here, i'm pretty much screwed.

You are not a bad mom - you're doing the right thing taking care of yourself and in turn, taking care of your baby.
Hopefully the insulin will take a stressor out by regulating your insulin levels.
And remember, its only temporary, this will pass.
Awww May you are a great mom!! Remember you are doing this for your baby! :-) This has no indication of what kind of mother you will be. Our bodies just suck....PERIOD!!

This is a crappy thing that is happening to you, you didn't cause it. You are already a great mom otherwise you wouldn't be doing everything you could to make sure your baby is taken care of.

i'm so sorry
that stinks!
your baby is lucky to have you because you have been taking this so seriously and you'll obviously continue to do so! keep up the good work!

i am so sorry you are so upset! You and baby will be fine! I know I feel the same way about my body! You will be a great mother you just got so what you have to to get that little one here safe and healthy that goes for you too!
((Hugs))
AW, I'm so sorry May. About the insulin, which sucks, but mostly because you feel like you've done something wrong. You absolutely haven't my dear. It's a common problem and its nothing to feel badly about. You are a GREAT mother, because you've been getting excellent prenatal care and doing everything the doctors suggest to have a healthy baby. That makes you a WAY better mom than half the women out there.
Awwww....big hugs! Just remember that it is not your fault. You are going to be a great momma because look at all the stuff that you are doing to keep you and your little cuppa healthy!
You are going to be a great mommy! Getting through all you have been through plus this just shows how much you love Cuppa. This too shall pass honey and you will be holding your beautiful little girl in a few short weeks. ((Hugs))
