Mrs. KPShubert - Some time passed us by...

It's been 2 weeks since my last appointment and so today I contacted the nurse with my numbers. I've found that my fasting sugar (first in the morning) was trending up - even with the crackers & peanut butter the Dr. suggested. So I think I'm going to have to keep taking another 2 unit notch up on the evening shot - which I did last night and woke to a perfect 95 this morning! Yay!

Other than that I've had a few times where I've been finding light pink to light red spotting over the last 48 hours. I'm not worried - even with my history. Some spotting is normal - unless it's accompanied by cramping or is heavy like a normal cycle it's probably fine.

I've had 2 confirmed miscarriages so naturally people think "you should tell someone about this" like the doctor. But the reality of the situation is that if this baby is God's will then I don't need to worry and if God wills this baby back to Him then I don't have to worry about that either. I'm not saying that I wouldn't seek help if I thought something were wrong -- I'm saying that at this stage there isn't much the doctor can do if I do start to miscarry. Mostly miscarriages take place after the baby has died.

I'm sorry if I've upset or frustrated anyone with the above statement. However, I do feel called to let you know what's going on. Right now - nothing going on... well, I do have a headache and I am tired. I am thinking (hoping) I should be getting some of this energy back after the next couple of weeks because I'll be in my second trimester by then. Woohoo!

I love you all - but I should get out of here now... bye.
