No more soda!

I cant believe the drs orders today. I drink Diet soda due to my risk for diabetes and not wanting to drink empty calories, so today the dr said to cut out anything w/ artificial sweetners/aspartame or the like. so what am I left to drink. Juice is way too sugary. Looks like water for me. unfortunately water makes my morning sickness worse. I hate drs. i understand his reasoning but I dont know what choices i’m left with now. I have my ob appt tomorrow and dont look forward to finding out when i have to get my first one hour glucose test. The end of sweets is nearing for me and I am dreading it. With Caleb I was so anxious to do what was best for baby, with Bo I just wanted to avoid insulin but couldnt even after cutting out most of my sugars and following a strict diet, with this one I just want a break already! maybe it will be a miracle and I wont have to worry about it this time, chances of that, well yeah it would have to be a miracle. I am pretty sure this will be my last natural child, i am sure we’ll adopt or something down the road but I think this will be it for me, it’s a sad realization but I cant do this all over again, I’m dreading having to do it all now.
