Egg and one slice of gluten-free toast with peanut butter for breakfast, a cheddar cheese stick and four gluten-free crackers for my morning snack, a salad with meat and one slice of gluten-free bread, an egg and a piece of fruit for my afternoon snack, another salad with chicken and a boiled egg and one slice of gluten-free bread or a dessert of fruit, and a midnight snack of peanut butter on a slice of gluten-free bread. I found out that my sugars were fine if I ate lunch or dinner at In-N-Out, if I ordered a #2 protein style, with water, and only half of the fries. I remember being overjoyed that I could eat a lot of pickles. It was annoying, plus it was hard to eat all of the time. I carried around snacks everywhere. I measured my food on a scale. The finger pricking was annoying as well (4xs a day), but it was good to check. There were a few times where I felt terrible and it was because my blood sugar was too low and I needed to eat something or drink a lot of water. All in all, it wasn't awful, just annoying and time consuming. Sam was basically grown with lots of cheese sticks and boiled eggs. By the end, though, I was being monitored a lot. I would have no less than three dr appointments in a week and I think at some point I had one every day. Sam was born early, at 36.5 weeks, completely healthy and neither one of us had blood sugar issues. I ate chili cheese fries the next day and it was fantastic.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14459351888854083937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3700054424832774619.post-51286984722032883972015-01-19T18:32:21.646-08:002015-01-19T18:32:21.646-08:00I wasn't sure what was going on, so I checked ...I wasn't sure what was going on, so I checked here.

I don't know anyone personally who has done a reduction, though I know of women on the fertility boards I spent years on who had them, and generally things go just fine. Big needs are always anxiety-producing, though. And bed rest for just a few days sounds pretty good, too (even though I'm not nearly as tired as I thought I'd be, probably due to the bucket loads of steroids I've been on this trimester). <br /><br />I do have a friend who went through some ambiguous results for GD and had to track her sugars for a while. If you don't get any messages from those familiar with your blog, I'm happy to connect you. Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08394396285606442977noreply@blogger.com
