Dr appt update

After waiting to be seen for an hour, things went quickly.  I saw the endocronologist, both for a thyroid f/u and for my gest. diabetes. I Knew  most of my daily checks of my sugar have been high, or thought they were.  Well, turns out I had the goal range wrong, and they were a lot different.  So I was thinking that today my fasting level was normal but it wasnt!  He said he could wait a few more days to see how my sugars do, but based on how they have been that he’d rather start insulin now than wait a few days.   The diagnosis for starting insulin is 2 or more readings higher than the normal goal range in 2 weeks, well it’s been 4 days and I think almost all (out of 4 checks a day) have been high.   So when I was thinking some were high but not so bad it was actually worse since I had the goal range 10 points higher than it should be.   So tonight I taked my first dose of insulin and see how it goes.   I had other bloodwork taken at the lab this afternoon as well.  he’s thinking my thyroid will probably be fine, since it tends to worsen in the beginning of pregnancy then afterward.  So at this point in the pregnancy he’s expecting it to be normal.

Dean’s home sick as is Caleb today so they hung out, with Bo of course too, while I went to the dr.   Which was good since I was gone so much longer than I expected to, so Dean was able to put Bo down for nap and get the kids fed lunch.  I just sent Dean & Caleb, who is now feeling much better, out to get my insulin and accessories, as well as to drop off some stuff to Caleb’s teacher that was due back today.   So bo is napping and I’m just hanging out. I should probably be resting or doing laundry, but I’ve done so much running today I just want to chill out.  I’ve had low back pain and pressure all morning so I know I need to start taking it easy again.  I’d stop taking it easy like I was supposed to and am feeling the effects.    I go back to the ob and the endo. again in two weeks.   So I’d like to make it that far without having to go in for any preterm labor scares or anything else for that matter!!!
