So I've got gestational diabetes. Yet another way my body can betray me by it's inability to function the way it's supposed to. I'm a bit frustrated and irritated right now. I feel better knowing that there's nothing I could have done to prevent this but I still feel responsible. I love candy and sweets and I just can't get it out of my head that if I'd just watched my sweet tooth a little closer I could have some how prevented this. I don't know many details yet, I just got the news this evening. I go in to my doctor tomorrow to get instructions on how to test my blood sugar and I'll go to Walgreens to pick up the finger pricker tester thingey. Then I'll be anticipating a phone call from the dietitian to schedule a consultation so I know what I'm allowed to eat. I've got a regular doctor's appointment next Thursday, you better believe she's going to be bombarded with my questions then.
There you have it.
