• May. 14, 2007 - Midwife Appointment

Well I had my midwife appointment....the good news is I LOST 2 pounds....the bad news, my glucose is high and she wants me to go in for the 3 hour test.   I think a couple of things have influenced it being higher than it normally would.  While I have been good on my  high protein, low carb diet....I celebrated my 10th Wedding Anniversay on Thursday and Mother's Day yesterday....I wasnt good those days.      My test was first thing in the morning when sugar will normally spike after not eating all night.   The third is I am on an iron supplement which can affect the absorption of magnesium and magnesium helps to lower blood sugar levels..........so I am not sure what I am going to do, except to behave myself and continue to watch my sugar intake.

Well that is it for now!   10 1/2 weeks left to go (unless I am late)

Hello! Happy Mothers Day, I'm so excited for you, just 10 more weeks to go. Keep us posted. Are you going to try a home birth?
I'm not sure if this is the same thing that your dealing with or what turns into what...with glucose and other stuff...so here's the article and you can figure out if this bit of information will help you or not.
