Insulin- weirdly relieved
Hi mommas!
So, just giving a bit of an update. I was SO upset when I found out I had gestational diabetes. I was struggling so hard with the diagnosis. I cried all the time and had major anxiety.
After I started the diet plan, I realized it wasn’t that bad..... and only my fasting numbers were high.
Today I got the call that I have to start insulin at night because of my fasting numbers. And I’m weirdly relieved. I tried everything I possibly could. Nothing was working. It was weighing on me heavily that I couldn’t control my fasting numbers.
Now I know I’m going to be induced at 38 weeks and that takes away a lot of the suspense as well.
So mommas, keep tracking. Gestational diabetes is not the worst thing. It actually keeps my diet in check and I’m 31 weeks and have only gained about 12 lbs! Woohoo!
I’m here if anyone needs to talk or vent, because man.. it is hard not giving in to cravings that’s for sure!
