Thank you everyone! Prayers appreciated! :) I know the LO is doing great so this is just to make sure she stays healthy.

ELT... I kinda saw the GD diagnosis coming. Just shocked that my doc suggested a 2 days hospital stay. That is the part that blindsided me. but I guess it's what is best. They could give me meds and it could be trial and error or they can get it all worked out with a short hospital stay. Everything happens for a reason.

XOXOX

Thanks for all the support girls! I will be bored as heck so I'm sure I'll be pestering you all! :)

I'm sure the hospital stay is for the best because you are so far along. I was diagnosed around 10 weeks, so I had lots more trial and error time! Good luck hun...like I said, you'll be fine and so will baby!

Yeah he said they just regulate the meds in the hospital and teach me diabetes training. Hence why the stay. It's easier and quicker for them rather than having me come into the office every few days. As long as everything is ok with baby I'll do whatever I have to. Even a hospital stay! :)
 
Thinking of you Angel, everything will be fine i'm sure and like you say, little girl is doing great which will help your state of mind. xxx
 
Yes I am doing fine. I just have to embrace whatever comes my way. No point in stressing because it's just going to harm me and the baby. This is NOT the end of the world. GD is treatable and all too common so I am just grateful that I can get the treatment and everything should be ok.
Thank you so much for the support. IDK what I would do without all you awesome wonderful women!! :)
 
I am ready to go home now the steroid shot hurt my bum LOL one more tomorrow and then pills and Home wednesday. At least the people at this hospital are nice and I have my own room with a fridge and my laptop and hubby plans to stay the night tomorrow if I can not swoom them into letting me go home. Cervix needs to stop shortening :(

Yep went from 1.4cm last Wednesday to 1.09 Monday so we decided better do the steroids while we can. learned that by doing them before 32 weeks it will aid her against any brain bleeds or retina issues when born. So, we sit here baby is awake and playing in my tummy. It is 2am here and I can not sleep I tried to turn off the lights and all, but then they come in to check my blood glucose level. So I am up GRR!!! My boobies hurt really bad and I just want to be asleep on mu husbands chest with the kitty cat in the bed :growlmad:
 
2.5 hours of sleep in the most uncomfortable bed ever in the world yippee!! Can I go home now?

just saw high risk Doctor team, if Zaya is not a min. of 3lbs next week I will remain in hospital til the end of the pregnancy I am so so so upset I want my mom and my husband and to go home. I am sorry to complain, but when the doctor at the clinic said 48 hour stay for the steroids and to monitor my Diabetes I thought it sucked but I could do it now we are saying up to 8 week in here
 
Oh my gosh! Do they know how much she weighs now?
Don't understand how staying in hospital will help with that though?
:( I couldn't stay in hospital that long, I'd just go back daily for monitoring unless it was really urgent to stay in.
Poor you x

It is too early to do a growth scan til next week they will only check her weight every two weeks. If I could do daily monitoring at home I would opt for it. But they are not doing daily monitoring of her with the monitor belts. Just monitoring me
 
Thinking of you peanut hun, I hope she is over 3lb for you so you can avoid a stay in hospital.
I couldn't think of anything worse. But if it's for yours and baby's health then it will be worth it xx
 
waiting to get test results today to see if we will be taking Zaya early like in the next week. Scared
 
Thinking of you Tara and Kelly :hugs:

Hope everyone else is okay xxx
 
Gemie, can you add me to the first page hun? EDD 2nd Nov, team yellow!

thank you xxx
 
well, I apparently have been having minor contractions and I had not a clue at all. when they did a monitoring of Zaya yesterday morning we found out I was having them. It just feels like she is curling up then kicks me hard. They tell me I am contracting then she is kicking back. I guess she is in there saying, "stop squishing me GRR"
Anyways, I get to go home later in the day today. After they monitor her again and make sure my BP is semi-okay. I have a scan in the morning and they are having the special care ward come talk to DH and I before I get to Leave today to go over risks and what all best/ worse case scenarios will happen when she arrives. They are more worried about me naturally going into labor than having to take her. But, if BP gets high or there is an increase of protein in my urine they will take her, or if she just is not going anymore. I am hoping that tomorrow or at Tuesday next weeks scan they will do a growth scan along with it to see if she has grown.

Oh, funny and embarassing I took a shower here last night and about 10 minutes after I was all dressed I am sitting next to DH on the bed and I take the towel off my head I think I have touched my wet hair to mt shirt... NOPE I leaked colostrum all over. LOL and when I awoke this morning I leaked enough to leave a stain through my shirt and onto the bed
