    Dear all,

    I am in my 30th week now. I have gestational diabetes and am consulting a diabetes specialist recommended by me gynaec.

    He asked me to take readings of my sugar level and get back to him after a week.
    My readings in the last 5-6 days has been within the normal range. i dunno if it means that my body has become normal and is producing the right amount of insulin (which it wasnt earlier).
    Anyways, i am meeting the specialist today evening. let me c what he says.

    I feel my body is returning to normal now that i have cut down on my work and working hours. earlier i used to work for about 9 hours and be on the road for about 3 hours everyday.
    Now, i work only about 3 hours in office, on the road around 2 hours and i relax at home.

    Anyway, i hope and pray everything will be fine and normal.

    I have cravings for sweet and spicy things but since i am on a strict diet, i cannot eat either...:-(

    just waiting for november to arrive soon, so that i can deliver soon and eat watever i want to my hearts content.

    Thats all the update from my end.

    Take care all
    Jaya

    Hey Jaya,

    Long time no see. Good to hear that you are back to normal. It's good that you managed to cut back on your working hours. Try to Relax..Even am in 30th week & very much waiting for the Delivery day, scared about the labor though :)

    I had a Kidney Infection couple of weeks back & was hospitalized, doing better now. But my doc put me on antibiotics till I deliver.

    You are doing a fantastic job managing house,work,kid while carrying a baby. KUDOS to you..

    We are just preparing a checklist for baby shopping & very much confused.Though wanna buy a lot of stuff. But lot of my friends are advicing not to buy too many. Let's see how we'll end up..

    Ok then Take care. 10 more weeks to go :thumbsup

    Hi Jaya,
    Diabetics during pregnancy is not uncommon.
    It happens.Have your diet and other intake as recommended by the Doctor.
    After delivery ,you will benormal.
    You will have a normal delivery and will be blessed with a healthy kid.
    Don't worry.

    dear Spinky and Hemamalini,

    thanks for the reassurances. well, i didnt meet the specialist ysterday. But i am planning on meeting my gynaec next week though my visit is not due till oct 15th.

    Hey Spinky, hope you are feeling better now and take care. Kidney infection? sounds serious.

    Your right, cant wait to deliver but mine will most prbbly be c-section so am not scared of labour.
    But u take care, dont worry too much abt labour. your body knows what to do when the time comes. just go with the flow when it happens. All the best!

    Jaya
