I went in for a growth scan/consult for my gestational diabetes today. I didn't get along with my doctor and ended up crying during the consult (I lodged a complaint about conflicting information being given by receptionists and he essentially called me a liar). He ordered I go get my NST right then and there (I was scheduled for 2/12). My blood pressure was high and I got sent to L&D for monitoring. I'm currently doing a 24 hour urine draw to rule out preeclampsia. They're talking about me being induced at 37 weeks.

It's so much. First.. my OB told me I need weekly NSTs. I scheduled them all and put in for them at work so I can make them. That, at the time, was 8 NSTs. I still had 2 growth scans to go (down to 1 now). I also had 6 regular OB appointments to go. Then I was informed at todays appointment that I actually need twice weekly NSTs because I'm on bedtime insulin. That's 24 doctors appointments. My head was already reeling and then in a flash im being admitted and told I might be induced early. A neonatologist had to visit me and everything.

To top it off my diet restrictions are wrong in their computer and the diabetic menu they sent me for room service has a bunch of incorrect carb counts. The yogurt said 9 carbs and was actually 17 when it came??

I hate being hospitalized. We have so much to do still. 😭
