straight to insulin?
So my doctor called me today and he's not happy with my fasting numbers. He wants me to call and schedule with the fetal maternal medicine doctors tomorrow and get started on insulin. I was just diagnosed last week and have only been testing for 5 days. Sigh...i really thought this time I'd at least get a chance to try and fix it with diet alone, but guess not. If my after meal numbers have been good, do they only have you take the insulin at night then? I'm only 16 weeks, so this is gonna be a loooong pregnancy dealing with this crap...

Well called my doctor about some pressure and other things and they're having me come in to get checked for dilation which they normally don't check for until 38 weeks and I'm only 36! 😰I'm a bit nervous!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Heyy mama's I need prayers my doctor called me himself and told me to get to the hospital with my problems and my blood work. I could have a seizure or stroke so I'm otw to the hospital.
You can ask to try oral medications first but if that doesn't work I'd just embrace the insulin. The longer and better co trolled your numbers are the healthier your pregnancy and the more likely things will go smoothly. Uncontrolled numbers lead to complications and wide shouldered GD babies leading to csections etc. I had GD that wasn't well managed in my first pregnancy which led to my baby having shoulder dystocia. This time the maternal fetal medicine doctors reluctantly agreed to letting me try oral meds first as long as I agreed to do insulin if that didn't work well. I'm 4 weeks from induction and I'm close to needing the insulin but again I'd rather be on it than have another terrifying delivery or be forced into a c-section.
