I went to the doctors last Friday and he started me on Glyburide 2.5mg twice a day. I thought I would be devastated but I wasn't. The day before I have gone to my follow up with the dietitian and she made me feel guilty about the fact I wasn't eating enough carbs! I feel like I can't win.So in order to eat even half of what she wanted me to my sugar would go through the roof. I we made a deal and I would eat 2 carbs at each meal until I went to the doctors the next day...I did and my numbers were all too high. Since starting on the meds the numbers have been great. All well below goal. I have been staring to eat more carbs and it hasn't raised my numbers yet. I did tell the doctor that I would not mind having her now...I feel like I could take care of her better outside of me rather than what I am doing to her while she is inside of me. I do know that it is too early and she needs to stay inside for at least 4 more weeks(that would have her 37 weeks) but I feel so bad every time I eat something and then get a high number. I have heard about "Mothers Quilt" and I do get it now. What I don't get is why some women do crack and not worry and I end up in tear if I eat melon? So I have let the quilt go about taking a medication during pregnancy and have excepted that it is better for her to have the meds and not the extra sugar at this time.
I have an u/s on Wednesday. They are going to do a weight check and look at my fluid level. They of course are doing this because of her increased risk of being large. I have seen weight scans be off many times but it will be nice to have an idea. The books say at 33 weeks she should be a little over 4lbs, I think we are way ahead of that.I am also happy to get to see what position she is in. The hard bump I get at the top of my uterus in the middle has to be her bum, but I just can't tell where everything else is.My guess is she is facing my back.That would explain the big bump that sticks out and nothing else. I hope she turns again because if this is were see stays I may be in for back labour!
We ordered her nursery chair last night, and plan to do the last few things this weekend. We cancelled our child birthing class....there is the quilt again! I just don't feel like spending 2 full days sitting listeneing to it.I have better things to do like sleep, go to a movie and hang with Jatovi. It will be our last full weekend together just the 2 of us EVER! So we aren't going to the class, we are just going to enjoy the freedom while we can!
