8:00 am- eat breakfast consisting of 45 carbs

2:00 pm test blood sugar
eat snack consisting of 30 carbs
5:00 pm check blood sugar level
give insulin shot of 5 units
eat dinner consisting of 75 carbs
9:00 pm eat snack consisting of 30 carbs

How awful! How did this happen?
I have had gestational diabetes apparently for about 3 months, and it went undiagnosed since Mike and I were moving. Since I just barely started seeing my new doctor this is why the diagnosis is coming in so late.
Also since i have had it for so long, they decided to put me on insulin for the remainder of my pregnancy so that way my insulin levels are stable and hopefully baby will be born healthy.
At least its only a few more weeks
So true Ash, I couldn't handle it for months on end or even worse the rest of my life. Plus I think Mike is about sick of me complaining about being hungry and all the time.
You're super brave. I love you. ((hugs))
