14 weeks

14 weeks.

14w0d: first MAJOR sugar crash of my life. after 10 units of insulin at bedtime, I am supposed to lie inactive for 8 hours. Instead, I was up ALLLLLLL night with a sick Eva. at 3am, my sugar crashed violently. I took the reading and it was 58. I treated it the way they told me to the other day and ate chocolate. my hands were so shaky that I could barely open the wrapper. then I spent the entire day ping ponging with my sugars going too high and then too low. felt disgusting all day. nurse said i no longer get to treat with chocolate....wahhhhhh.

14w1d: big excitement in the Shire household=after 6 months of torturous potty training, Eva made it to five dry days in a row, which means she has earned herself a bike!

14w2d: spent the day with family at my brother in law's engagement party. was told there would be tons for me to eat and not to pack anything for myself. WRONG! lesson learned that I need to ALWAYS bring something for myself when we are eating out.

14w3d: Father's Day and second major sugar crash. my poor husband had a crap father's day because I woke up at 62 and puked twice before 9am, then had a raging headache and he sent me to bed until I evened out, which was around 3pm.

14w4d: dropped to 8 units of insulin and doing much better!

14w6d: first pair of pants are getting really tight. time to wash some maternity clothes!
