Sammi measures 31 weeks even though i hit 30 weeks tomorrow...not surprised since she was 2 pounds 15 ounces at 28 weeks i imagine she is a good amount into the 3 pound range at this point lol...i have a head cold and am totally miserable atm. Always been a daddy's girl and we found out he needs a triple bypass. serious enough they cancelled someone elses surgery to fit him in to the surgery rotation sooner..and its still a week out. Doctor probably thinks im full of shit too because finding babies heartbeat i was trying to tell her she is on the left, but she insisted the right was where she was hearing her heartbeat..so she makes the joke "well if your heart rate has been 130-140 id be concerned" To which i said at points it had been so she took my pulse and of course its not high when ive been sitting on my butt in a doctors office..she should measure it when i spend 6 hours cleaning out my closet like i did on Tuesday..but i just think she probably said to herself "this lying sack of shit" lol..
I see the endo later today and i'll get all my results back and my ultrasound information of my thyroid....
Nothing showed up on thyroid ultrasound. TSH still dropping. They have ruled out hashimotos and Graves' disease so all that's left is to wait for baby to be born and then I get to have a brain scan to check out my pituitary gland. Doc also thinks I need metaformin with my blood sugars or some kind of medication. So I am logging them this weekend and calling him Monday to see what medication I need if anything..
Oh Burakoam! I'm so sorry that this is taking much longer to get you much needed treatment [emoji20]!
Metformin is fine to take in pregnancy, if it is needed to regulate your blood sugar. It is a category B. I would definitely give that a try to see if you respond well to it before moving to insulin. Insulin can be challenging to find the right dose and the right types that work.

My Ovulation Chart
Here is what I don't get.. I got my meter today to test over the weekend for the doctor.. my sugar before dinner was 87...normal... I ate dinner and he said to eat my regular diet and I did.. I had velveeta and meat (tastier version of hamburger helper if you will) and I drank a 7 up..testing time and my sugar is 114. Wtd? I want to be happy my sugar is normal and also because I won't need metaformin but seriously wtf? Should I be worried my meter isn't working right? How do I get 230 with a glucose drink and get diagnosed diabetic and eat a decent 'carby' meal and get passing sugars? 'Has anyone experienced this?
Burakoam yes in my last pregnancy I did. If you eat a ton of fat with a meal it has the potential to delay the spike. So there would be times when I had carbs that should've put me over but all the fat must've either delayed the spike or countered it. I never really checked if I spiked much later because I just figured it was a pass and left it be. When are you testing? An hour after or two hours after?
Book that came with the meter and endo said 1 HR. I figured that was okay since when they do the glucose test they draw your blood every hour? I mean with the drink in 1 HR I was at 170 the first time and the 3 HR test after 1 HR I was 230 so I'm sitting here really stumped. I believe that meat had a lot of fat lol.. also lots of protein.. it still threw me off to see that nice perfect number
My doctor always had me testing at 1 hour after finishing my last bite and I had to be under 120. For a while I doubted I even had it because my numbers were great. Then at about 32 weeks they just kept getting higher and higher. It's only when I tested as a non-pregnant person that I saw the difference. I never got above 93 one hour after.
I started testing this pregnancy last week when I turned 13 weeks. Yesterday was my first number of concern which was 120 an hour after. Although that could be a normal number in a non-diabetic or a non-pregnant person, it's making me think the diabetes is coming back. I have my first glucose Monday so interested to know if I'll pass for the next 4 weeks or not. But long story short---you may be someone who can just do the diet control and not need metoformin if your numbers stay good. I think the reason your doc jumped to that is because anything over 200 is considered next level and usually meds are needed.
It's interesting to see the differences in number between countries I test every 2 hours after a meal and my spikes are always higher later on due to carbs being absorbed slower, my reading have always been reasonable with diet and exercise control but I have noticed lately hitting 36 weeks and 3 days my levels in the mornings after sleep are spiking for no apparent reason, I still eat the same I'm hoping I don't end up needing medication.
