Reiko-I had GD with my first pregnancy also. Thankfully it was diet controlled and I had no complications, but I’m really hoping I’m able to skip it this time. It’s just a bummer having to do the low carb diet at a time where you SHOULD be able to let loose a little bit and enjoy treats. And the constant blood sugar taking is annoying too. Here’s to hoping we are both lucky this time around!! I still have my glucometer, but honestly have been too scared to check my sugars, lol.
Cheluzal-I’m sure you’re just feeling frustrated with your sickness. I can relate...during my first pregnancy I was also in a pregnancy group on here. Slowly as second trimester approached, it seemed like almost everyone else was feeling better....yet there I was, still sick, still throwing up, and still feeling like garbage until the pregnancy was more than half over. It’s discouraging and I got really depressed. I felt like I was getting left behind. All you want to do is just enjoy the pregnancy and the miracle that’s growing inside you, but the sickness makes it really hard. All you can do is hang in there. The baby is worth it, I promise!
Afm, I haven’t been posting much because I don’t really have many good things to say. The hypersalivation continues, the vomiting continues, and now I have what I believe to be a tooth abscess!! Ugh. Starting to feel like there is no way I’m going to be feeling better by the time 2nd tri gets here. It would be too good to be true.
