Glad to see you girls checking in!! Stay safe up there. I know down here the wind is blowing so hard and we aren't even in the path of the storm! We had leaves on our peach tree last night ... this morning, BALD! The wind actually woke me up last night. Please stay safe and update us if you can so we know you ladies are ok!!!!

I received bad news about my 3 hr glucose test today. 2 of my 4 values were high, which means I am officially diagnosed with GD. Today I will get my diabetes kit from the pharmacy. Then on Wednesday morning I will have an appointment with a nutritionist and then an appointment with a nurse about managing GD. I know it makes no sense, but I feel so guilty for getting GD.

There's nothing you could have done to prevent it. It just happens sometimes. What you can do is do your best to control your diet so your sugars stay level and it doesn't interfere with baby. it is more of a hassle then anything. The only good I saw from having it is they didn't let me go last my due date. if you need any help don't hesitate to ask I'm a gd pro and Nikki has it full time.

Oh love

Don't feel guilty. Your diet during pregnancy had nothing to do with it. My pre-pregnancy weight this pregnancy is 15kgs (33lbs) lighter than my pre-pregnancy weight with my daughter!!!! Yet this pregnancy is the one where I develop pregnancy induced hypertension and the only box I tick under "people at a higher risk of getting it" was the overweight category.

Shit just happens sometimes no matter how hard we try.

Your hurricanes haven't even hit the news here yet, I think I heard something in passing last week but nothing since.

Bit strange because usually the news love natural disasters, domestic and international.

Hanging in there.

My shark fishing adventure was on vacation. My BIL night shark fishes from the beach. He kayaks his bait out about 200-300 yards, drops it in the ocean and kayaks back in - all in the dark and guided by a spotlight from the beach! It's crazy! This summer he hooked a shark about 45 minutes into fishing (amazing timing). I held the spotlight in knee high surf as he pulled the shark onto the beach! It was nuts. And I did it all 20 weeks pregnant, lol.

Here's a pic of my BIL and friends with the 7ft sand tiger shark. He was released back into the water and swam away!

Hi ladies

Sending keep well thoughts to off all of you ladies on the east coast plus any likely to be effected. Keep well x

Sorry I've been absent alot recently. As you know works been manic but finally calming down a bit, she says, until something else kicks off, at least a few days rest maybe.
As you may know DH was also having problems at work so was signed off. He has now resigned from his job due to the stress of it all and I thin he finally realised how he was being treated. He has an interview tomorrow, well assessment for a job he was offered last week, fingers crossed x

Sonia!! Hope you get better days at work and I hope hubby's new job is awesome and people are different!

Snow - did they induce you or were you forced to have a c-section?
