I was doing the ones before meals today, just so we could see what was happening. Otherwise I just have to do the morning and 1 hour after meals (2 hours max). The doctor this morning didn't like when I told him the fasting one was 7.8

hmmmmm! I wonder if the diet the dietician gave me is going to have to change?! The doctor will see my numbers on Monday, and the dietician will be here on Tuesday, so I asked to have an appointment with her as well.

The fasting sounds high to me. That's my problem too. Insulin isn't toooo bad once a day, I'm really trying hard to watch what I eat so that I don't have to add the meal insulin too. I think the only thing you could do for the fasting number is maybe take a walk after supper?

I got a preloaded pen needle and the needle part is really small and fine so it's not to bad if I change sites regularly. Still have to prep talk myself and can't watch myself give myself the needle, I focus on the TV

 

[msarkozi]

yeah, he was concerned about that fasting one as well....Maybe I will need insulin like you do?!

lol! I only seem to have one finger right now that likes to give blood for some reason....so it is getting poked a lot....

and are you kidding me?! I live North from you, where it's a lot colder....I'm not going for a walk!!!

I was totally thinking that while I typed the whole "go for a walk" idea. I wouldn't do it either

The girls at work threw me a shower today! It was so sweet! They all chipped in and got me https://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=3357524

So sweet! And a couple cute outfits and a snuggli carrier and some other bits (i sound so british LOL).

Thinking of you Natty. I know how that is...

Very nice Ready! My friend sent me a little package of baby things today, and it made my day. Nice to know people care about you.

 

[braijackava]

So if I take the 3 weeks away from the number of days on my ticker it only leaves 48 days! Eeeek!

 

[blessedmomma]

thats the same swing i have sara!!! its so great

 

[blessedmomma]

almost time brai!!!! i have been washing all my baby clothes that i didnt give away. also have made a list of all that we still need, which isnt much. also have gotten out the bouncy seat, swing, and car seat to wash them all up. got the baby's bag packed up except for a few things. also got mine packed and my kids packed. will pack up my hubby when its closer.

we will have to change around our living room to fit the bouncy and swing. havent decided if we are getting out the playpen/changing table/bassinet. it does all that so it was nice to have with my boys but have to find a spot for it.

feel like im starting to nest. having a little more energy the past couple of days. could just be that i know i have a lot to get ready though and getting decent sleep

 

[readynwilling]

Wow you are so organized Blessed!! While i want to start washing, setting up and packing... its like putting gifts under the christmas tree - looking at them with anticipation will KILL me

 

[blessedmomma]

i feel like im way behind since i just got started. usually i have so much done by now if not everything. i just kept telling myself ive got time and now im realizing im running out of time.

youre really gonna love that swing. it was the 4th one i have ever owned and i just love it

 

[msarkozi]

I just have to wash a few more things that I bought recently, pack my bags, and install car seat!! yah!!! I am so ready for this!!

I am freezing tonight though for some reason.....might have to crank the furnace some more! I think it's getting pretty chilly outside....

 

[membas#1]

Sara--really cute swing! That was nice of your work group. My work group is throwing me a shower next week as well. Really nice of them.

As far as prep goes--i still have clothes to wash and diaper covers to wash, but we have our changing table and dresser setup and the dresser is full of 0-3 mo clothes, just need to wash them (can't remember if i already did?); carseat and swing is coming from a friend so need to get those and clean them up...we put our cosleeper up this weekend to make sure it was going to work well for us, and it was so easy to setup we decided that we'd take it back down and wait until right before or when we get home to put it back up. have a pack n play but not setting it up for a while- so it's in storage--we'll use it outside during garden season mostly anyways as we will be outdoors working hard on the garden within the first few months after she's born (hopefully!) i guess i'll start thinking about hospital bag soon enough but definitely don't have anything even remotely ready or thought about for that.

I guess I figure it'll all fall together, but I feel like Ive done what i need to for now? Until i start really nesting!

We do still need to fill our deep freezer with meals/soups for after the birth so we don't ahve to cook..but that'll happen in Feb sometime....

 

[rottpaw]

Awesome Sara, that is the same one that a friend gave us except we have the "rainforest" one.

Natty, to you. I know exactly how you feel because my grandmother just passed away yesterday . We knew she was ill, but I just saw her a week ago and she did not seem that fragile. It was a bit of a shock to me how fast it happened.

Melissa S - I hope you get things worked out with your OH! I can't believe he's moving someone into your place on you like that just before baby. I don't blame you for wanting to kick them both out!

Hugs to all of us!

 

[msarkozi]

The guy is actually scared of me due to last night's activities, so this is working out well! lol! He did say he hopes to be out of here next week, but I am sure it will be a couple. He told OH that he will look after himself and I don't have to do anything....I am sure I will survive the time he is here, as long as no more nights like last night happen.
