i wanted to say im sry for being MIA for awhile....as some of you know i have been having issues with this pregnancy....so i figured id update you guys and let you know whats been going on....
Well at the begining of this pregnancy i had alot of bleeding and almost misscarried the baby....i was put on bedrest around 10 weeks along. They finally took me off it but i wasnt off for long when i went into pre term labor. I started having contractions...went to the ER and i was almost 4 cms dialated...so they gave me this shot to help stop the labor....sent me home with meds to take if i started having more contractions...that way i was able to stop them at home instead of having to be rushed to ther ER again....and the works wonders lol. I have taken them only a couple of times but they stopped my contractions each time.
WEll lately ive been getting really lightheaded and dizzy....and started passing out alot. So far within the past week ive passed out a total of about 6-7 times. So of course i called my doctor and they told me it was normal (this was after i passed out the first time)...yeah ok whatever. SO after i passed out the 2nd time vic took me to the ER and my sugars were low....they told me it might have been cause i was sick..and wasnt eating much or drinking much...but they said i could have hypoglyemia...so they waited a coupel days and tested me again. My blood sugar was still really low.
So they told me i have gestational dibeates...but its type 2. which means they go low instead of high. SO now i have a diet to follow which isnt much of a diet cause i just gotta eat more small meals and if i start feeling light headed to drink a little bit of soda to bring them back up. i have a whole stack of papers they gave me explaining what to look for and all that good stuff. so i wont bore ya with it lol
but anyways im 26 weeks now....not much longer to go! Hannah doesnt really understand that im gonna have a baby but i didnt think she was really...shes to young to realize it. SHe likes to rub my belly though....i tell her all the time that theres a baby in there and she will just look at me all werid...shake her head no and go...."no me babies!" so in other words im not allowed to have a baby cause shes mommys baby lol....i dont know how shes gonna react to him when he gets here lol
Goodness. It's been a rough ride for you hasn't it? I hope that the new diet will help you with the diziness and all!! Relax and take care of yourself!!
lol....well we have picked out a name....Caden Michael....but i still use him...cause we know its a boy. Hailey makes me call him "baby brother" cause she says its not a boy, not a girl, its her baby brother lmao. kids...
