@shortygreyhere Thanks! And yeah, totally! Too bad not a single other family member has ponied up yet though :\

@shortygreyhere Question! My mom said someone told her it was good for life, so since she had it a few years ago she thinks she doesn't need to get it again. True? Not true? Also, I barely mentioned it to my grandparents because my grandpa was recently diagnosed with cancer and is recovering...

@rustyw You are definitely not alone as far as the last part of your post and I can totally relate but hadn't brought it up! GD is also my third high risk issue I am seeing my perinatologist for! It's given me so many appointments in the past few weeks it just makes everything that much more...

@rustyw LOL I am glad it's not just me. I like hummus but boy does it get old quickly. Ugh. I even have three kinds to choose from and all have the same damn aftertaste.

@i_labyu Very scary! This has been an eye opener for me for sure. My grandma has like 5 brothers and sisters and every single one has type II diabetes. My great grandfather had it, too. It's gunning for me, I know it : \

@i_labyu Me too, type II diabetes runs on my mom's side of the family and I definitely don't want it later in life. Nor do I want to be on insulin for the remainder of my pregnancy. So yeah, I'm back on the wagon!

@i_labyu I am doing better today :) I think I had a small meltdown after my diagnoses - I tend to fight against directives and changes in rules - but I'm over it. I have recorded all my readings today and am doing well with my numbers. One thing that helped is that my OB told me this week they...

@stuh Thank you!

@nalle Thank you!

@jacknife Thank you!

@mauricio512 Thank you very much!

@littlemelittleu2 I am so happy to read this, seriously. And I mean happy in the context of what sounds like a really qualified, competent physician. You need one of those - for peace of mind (and trust) if nothing else. It's early still, but just keep truckin' along day by day, appointment by...

@katrina2017 I know - that's why I thought I should say something, even though I didn't really feel like typing it all out. They just keep saying with fibroids that it's a crap shoot and can't be planned for. I have always had a good feeling about this pregnancy though, so I'm sticking to that!

@henri Oh I'm sorry :( It was a rough day for sure. Thank you for your empathy - I sincerely appreciate that!

@jccarlos26serra Thank you!!!

@bathanh Thank you!

@bisi007 Thank you very much! I appreciate it and lessoned learned for sure..!

@johnboy99 Sooo...that's the weird thing. No game plan. Just return to life as usual and if it happens again, come back. They even gave me a L&D parking pass? I am really hoping to not be on bed rest because I declined short term disability like an idiot last year and can't put us in that...

@littlemelittleu2 THANK YOU. I also keep telling myself that if I can hang in for 8 more weeks, I'll at least have a fighting chance. I appreciate it! :)

@littlemelittleu2 Thank you very much! I had no idea they'd cause this much trouble. I am glad to see so many forum posts and such from ladies with similar experiences; it helps me feel like what I'm going through is somewhat common and most often has a happy ending. I'ts just exhausting and...
